| I'm guessing the downvoters have no clue what TAP is or why it is relevant to peer-to-peer. Either that or they just think this is some critique of their beloved Apple. I'm referring to the TUN/TAP driver. All BSD's have it (/dev/tap). And to easily do encapsulation, which is very handy for VPNs and peer-to-peer, you need it. OSX has it. iOS does not. So, downvoters, why is TAP missing from iOS? Why is iOS crippled? Or "castrated" to use the parent's terminology. I've got peer-to-peer that relies on TAP. Not a problem with any BSD or Linux or even OSX. The exception is iOS. Why? |
