I don't recall seeing anything that would suggest that the IPFS project
is concerned with privacy/anonymity (beyond "use Tor"), and furthermore,
their use of a (public) block chain for naming entities also suggests
that IPFS is not suitable for private data.
I'm not saying that they are doing anything "wrong", but it seems some
of the high-level goals or priorities are different, as are some of the
methods they use. Hence, I would not consider them a rip-off.
