Until it ultimately relies on Amazon S3 and a commercial network provider all the effort to obtain "decentralization" looks wasted. I hope IPFS will someday run on top of protocols like PJON ( https://github.com/gioblu/PJON ). Decentralization and democratization of networking will happen from the lower end, when the network infrastructure will be ours, and we will not be forced to pay multiple corporations to temporarily store our data or get it from one end to the other. Then, IPFS may have sense.

In my opinion we should:

1. Specify new data link and network standards for decentralized networking over private and decentralized networks

2. Build the networks

3. Start to think about high level stuff like IPFS
