 ===== Data Nodes =====
-Data nodes in Qortal are a Qortal node with an added feature giving that node the ability to store and host data for access by others. Initially, the only type of data storage that is possible on Qortal, is ‘public data’. Public data is any data that is meant to be accessed by others (website, blog, social media, files for download, etc). Public data storage will utilize a few different concepts to carry out its mission successfully.
+(*This information is outdated as of June 2025, and will be updated further over time.)
+Every Node on Qortal is by default a 'data node' unless QDN is specifically disabled by the operator of the node. Both public and private QDN data is stored on any node that accesses said data or follows the publisher name by default. This allows for data to gain redundancy, access speed for the next node accessing it, and decentralization with each new node that accesses it.
 NOTE: By default, all nodes are also data nodes, and they have relay mode enabled. Users can change their settings to disable relay mode, or set qdnEnabled to false to disable Qortal Data Network hosting completely. There is also a setting to change the storage policy to host ALL data, instead of just content that was viewed or followed, as detailed below. For information on changing those settings, please see the [[How To Edit Qortal Core Settings]] page.
