God, Foldershare was the shit about 2006.

Pick any folder on your PC, share it with a friend anywhere on the internet and it kept them in sync.

The powers that be simply could not tolerate that.

Microsoft acquired them in about 2006 or 2007, and that was that.

Today we have Syncthing and Resilio, but that's nowhere near as simple as Foldershare.
