Do you have to use WWW? How about a torrent?

> why isn't it easier today to put something on the internet than it was 10 years ago?

Interesting question. If it's easy, then probably you're putting your content onto someone else's domain. This leads to two issues (which are related).

1. The domain that's hosting your content can be legally responsible for it, so you have copyright and other legal issues which leads to them putting barriers in your way.

2. The host also might want to make money off your content, so they're going to want to control the ecosystem via things like logins, moderation, etc.
