The amount of data isn't so much the problem, but having recipients come
back to pick up the news is a lot more traffic - getting TCP connections
organized, especially with HTTP that isn't bidirectional. Why have them
come back to you if they can have the info immediately with close to no latency?

Huh.. that would throw us back to DHTs or cloud service things sponsored
by nice people. I don't see any architecture work without any servers at
all.
