Project Maelstrom is one of the ongoing initiatives aimed at building a new Internet that works like BitTorrent.
That is, decentralized and free.

When you download a torrent and open it with a torrent client, something magic happens: you start downloading file referenced by the torrent not from a central server, but from all the users who have downloaded the file. Each user sends you bits and snippets of the file, and before you know it, you have downloaded the whole file. The BitTorrent technology for distributed file storage and Peer to Peer (P2P) transfers was one of the biggest developments in Web technology since the Web itself, and opened the way to a distributed, fully decentralized Internet.
BitTorrent is an ideal technology for P2P file transfers – once a torrent is released and seeded by many users, there is no way to stop the wave. But the weak link is the Web: if the authorities don’t like a website, they can take over the central server and shut it down. Examples: The Pirate Bay, Silk Road, and WikiLeaks. But if there is no central server, the authorities can’t take down the central server.
As reported by Reason magazine, BitTorrent CEO Eric Klinker said about BitTorrent’s Micro Transport Protocol:
“It’s the best example we have of technology being used to solve what is perceived to be a policy problem. It’s only through the technology that the Internet’s rules are written.”
Before announcing the developed of Project Maelstrom, BitTorrent launched the P2P chat application Bleep, currently in open alpha testing, which works through a server-less architecture built around a distributed hash table (DHT). Bleep is fully encrypted, with messages and other data only stored locally on users’ devices. Users can entirely delete their message history if they want. That shows how a distributed, peer-to-peer architecture like BitTorrent uses is more secure than one built on a cloud-based architecture.
