What is torrenting?

Torrenting is a file-sharing method that allows users to distribute and download large files quickly and efficiently. It works by breaking down the file into smaller parts, which are then distributed among multiple users who are simultaneously downloading and uploading the file. This peer-to-peer system helps distribute the file's load, making it faster and more reliable than traditional downloading methods. Due to its decentralized nature, torrenting has faced criticism for being used for piracy and illegal sharing of copyrighted material.
