Why don't zimit.kiwix.org-generated zim files no deliver a torrent link?

I would expect this to be a default feature, particularly for users looking to access content because of censorship.

particularly for users looking to access content because of censorship.

This would not help at all regarding censorship since those ZIMs are private and thus there can not be other peers.

We could provide torrents which would contain the HTTP download URL as a webseed. This would only help regarding download integrity. I guess given the limits, the ZIMs are all expected to be small and we did not consider this critical.

Regarding censorship, zimit still needs access to:

• zimit.kiwix.org to place the request and interact
• the wasabi bucket server we upload the ZIMs to
