nearly the same as with #11 except this time it is from whonix VMs (meaning the transfer happens via Tor)

to be explained:
-why using syncthing is better than using torrents for private, one-time file sharing as we only want to send it to one person.
-syncthing advantages include: , E2EE, FOSS, Self-hostable, and most importantly as we're transmitting files over Tor automatic restart of the file synchronisation (since tor circuits often fail mid-way, you need to make sure it automatically starts over)
-the transfer happens over tor, guaranteeing the anonymity of both the sender and the reciever

to be showcased:
-the setup that Sam needs to have to be able to send a 10Gb file (no need for a VPS as its not clearnet anymore), this time it must be a hidden service that Sam spins up locally, so that Larry an access it via its .onion domain. P2P
-the setup that Larry needs to have to recieve it
-how Sam can send the file
-how Larry can recieve the file

-mention how long it takes to send 10Gb over Tor, its preety damn slow, but automatically restarts whenever the connection fails
