Possibly the lack of adoption for native browser support.



More like the lack of possibility of injecting ads and collecting data while using BT.


Brave browser has a built in torrent client, IIRC.


IIRC Opera used to have support for it at some point.


Aside from the nontrivial security mechanisms that would be required to implement it safely, is there another reason why native browser support for torrenting doesn't exist yet?


I suspect it just doesn't look good from a PR perspective. who wants to be first to get slammed in the press for enabling piracy?
