+IPFS is an open-source, decentralized system that eliminates the need for a central authority, making it more resilient and censorship-resistant than traditional centralized systems. No single entity or person controls, manages or owns IPFS; rather, it is a community-maintained project with multiple implementations of the protocol, multiple tools and apps leveraging that protocol, and multiple users and organizations contributing to it's design and development.

In addition, because IPFS is open-source, community-maintained and modular, users are not obligated to use a particular subsystem (described in [How IPFS works](#how-ipfs-works)). Instead, users can customize IPFS to accomodate their preferred technologies, needs and values.

 #### Kademlia Distributed Hash Table (DHT)
 
-Lorem ipsum...
+IPFS uses Kademlia, a <VueCustomTooltip label="A decentralized data store that maps data based on key-value pairs." underlined multiline is-left>Distributed Hash Table (DHT)</VueCustomTooltip> designed for decentralized peer-to-peer computer networks. Kademlia is used to map what the user is looking for to the peer that is storing the matching content. The Kademlia DHT can be thought as a huge table that stores information on who has what data, and where that data might be located. The Kademlia DHT provides IPFS with:
+
+- A catalog and a navigation system for data on the IPFS network
+- Logic for handling undialable peers
+- Logic for refreshing the list of peers
+- Logic for dropping peers from the DHT if they are inactive or not offline
