This almost defeats the whole purpose of IPFS's automatic caching of resources. Using HTTP gateways is something anyone already can do in any browser and with a little work on the side of web devs can be done automatically. At the moment what's the point of using Durin?



There’s always going to be a need for centralized services in decentralized systems.

Email has it. Git has it.

I can see a self hosted HTTP gateway with Durin being very useful.
