Create a Magnet hash from the URL you seek. Use DHT to find a swarm and get a copy. If you can't find a swarm, and are not worried about privacy, GET the file and advertise the Magnet hash for a while.
The minor drawback is that this gets slower as we flood the DHT hash space. The huge drawback is that this only works for static content. Not much of that around these days.
Dynamic content forces us to each download our own personalised packets. Sadly, these mostly differ only in the (blocked) targeted adverts. -- A fool throws a stone into a well and a thousand sages can not remove it.
