Even if the traffic of the torrent protocol is peer-to-peer, there have to be central nodes managing all that unfortunately. This is why DMCA notices are also successful with torrent providers. Without anyone providing that central node, no torrent works.
One of the major weaknesses of bittorrent.
Edit: the solution is called DHT and I was a morron totally forgetting about that.
What if devs would publisch their stuff via torrent?

Perhaps some sort of Distributed Hash Table?
DHT was created like 20 years ago just for this purpose, they work just fine.
Fck, my bad, you are absolutely right. Fixed my comment.
