> Correct me if I'm wrong but as far as I understand, passively listening on DHT would only mean you build up a list of infohashes of everything shared on BitTorrent. You'd actually have to reach out to your DHT peers to know what files the infohashes actually represents.
Yes, you're correct! I should have stated that, you still need to resolve the metadata from the peers that have the infohashed files hosted. That's a separate operation from downloading the file's content.
