The better solution to blocking entire continents is probably doing nothing.

For DDoS resistance... Well I can imagine a world where a tech in the same area as IPFS or freenet gives backup access to websites that are overloaded.

Are we getting that before or after personal jet packs, flying cars, and my tacos delivered via tacocopters?

I'll protect my sites with Cloudflare until then, thanks.

As a small website owner, I can use Cloudflare or I can wait for this imagined tech.

Would IPFS need to be a part of the browser? Or is there an easy to use browser out there that runs on IPFS? If you need the average user to go find proxys, it won't work.
