Hi @djabril The primer was written with the aim of de-intimidising (if that’s a word) the network so I’m glad it helped a bit at least. It is a bit out of date now though and it’s on my to-do list to update it with all the new developments.
To your questions: the link is now safe://safenetworkprimer (see here for a more up to date list of sites).
Performance expectations is a tricky one as it is very much a work in progress and we didn’t want to speculate at this stage. There are various tradeoffs, eg when you break up a file and spread the chunks around the world it there will be an initial lag in getting those chunks, although after that opportunistic caching should help popular files download faster, but this is as yet untested. Client to client messaging should be very quick, but again there are no tests to use as evidence (as far as I know).
Preventing bad actors doing bad things is beyond the scope of the network itself, which is basically infrastructure, but there will be nothing to stop applications that build on top of that infrastructure from implementing their own rules as they see fit. That one’s an old perennial as you might imagine and there are lots of discussions about it elsewhere on this forum.
