GigaTribe is a peer-to-peer file-sharing network. Originally developed in France (2005), its American version was launched in November 2008. It offers free and paid versions; with the paid version users may restrict access to their encrypted files to a group of trusted friends.
In 2010, a U.S. federal judge ruled that reasonable expectation of privacy does not extend to GigaTribe file-sharing. In the case, an informant gave police access to his GigaTribe friends' files, and child pornography was subsequently discovered.
