It's still the old-fashioed broadcast method for that type of search. Query routing didn't come out until much later and hash queries were left out because...

I use them daily and they still work as well as ever. In fact, they are absolutely essential for the vital activity of tracking and fighting the masses of...
... And this is exactly why they shouldn't be used. A Hash query uses a pure flooding mechanism tempered by neither QRP[1] nor DQ[2], so almost any single Hash...

... I don't take any of this personally, so no worries. I guess what I've been trying to tell you is that SHA1 queries, as designed a long time ago by HUGE,...
... No. You have chosen to be left behind when you chose to stick to a dead client. A program is dead as soon as noone develops it anymore, but the environment...

... The DHT for hash searches is such a radical change, and one which has been proposed for more than 5 years, but which only recently became feasible with the...
"=> Most people don't use hashes regularly." Chicken and egg problem. If hash searches aren't supported how the hell are people going to use them. People use...
