Bittorrent does always "share" in a sense that it uploads parts of the file
it is currently dowloading. Bittorrent is a popular download method for oss,
because it saves server bandwidth (cost). As opposed to trading files that
are protected by copyright, there is no legal reason not to use bt for
oss/copyleft data.
