[Question] How does data Syncing Work

I have read through the material put out and listened to videos but none of them cover how data syncing actually works in detail to the point where you can understand it. I understand it is a F2F network but that doesn't explain what happens in different situations.

  1. If someone with only one contact is part of a forum. That contact introduced them to the forum. Can they only receive forum updates from that one person since they only have one contact?

  2. If someone with only one contact is part of a private group. Can they only receive updates from that group through that one person as well?

  3. If person "A" sends message to person "B". Person "B"s only contact is person "A" . Person "A" has both person "C" and person "B" as a contact. Will person "C" store that message so that person "B" can receive person "A"s message from person "C"?
