In October 2010, an article was published in the Communications of the ACM, revisiting the topic of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems and their revolutionary impact on the digital landscape.

The article noted that within just over a decade since their inception, P2P systems had become a ubiquitous technology, enabling millions of people to share resources and communicate directly without the need for a centralized authority.

These systems had given rise to innovative new services and had transformed the way people interacted with digital content.

The article predicted that P2P would continue to evolve and play an increasingly important role in shaping the future of the internet and its applications.
