“The development rightly has the British Phonographic Institute(BPI) already pulling their hair out and will certainly lead to claims that it can mask terrorist or child pornography related activities – their standard “in case of emergency” arguments. ”

Exactly how encrypting the protocol being used does this? xD

First… LOL!

Okay if anyone was a serious terrorist threat they wouldn’t be using Bit torrent to distribute anything. They’d simply either a) hand deliver the info to be sure no 3rd party could see… or b) send it a long a EXTREMELY high encoded direct connect program.

Child pornography? Seriously? Doesn’t that just mean you should block convicted sex abusers from the internet? Besides not all countries care so much about child porn as the big ones do. Not to say it is right by any means but child porn isn’t of any concern at all. Besides who would want to watch kitty porn when you can see a woman who has an extra $30000 in addons getting plowed by some guy with the world’s largest hog? … or Much of the other completely nasty stuff distributed?

The fact is there are always bad people out there. But we can’t continue giving away our freedoms because we are scared of them. I am personally sick of all the sissies that live in today’s society. Kind of how 9/11 happened… which apparently Osama Bin Laden did (bullshit)… somehow that has something to do with Sudam and his oil… which also we now need phone taps on every phone in the us… and the right to bust into your house without a warrant or probable cause… which leads to billions and billions of tax dollars spent on someone else’s agenda all the while they are spoon feeding bullshit to everyone and they are eating it up. Typical.

I think that Bit Torrent could work woof for banned or secret files using an public tracker and seeding while on the road. You would just keep DHT off and not put the torrent out in public. It would be using a common protocol and no unusual ports or anything to show that it’s highly secret stuff.

I don’t know what I’m barking about really but I’m sure that the underground has this all worked out already secret ways that no one talks about..

Pornography it seems like it’s mostly the older folks who are concerned by that. As I’ve grown on the net I’ve seen all of the stuff along the way and it’s just not a big deal it’s just there. Maybe if people got to see what they want and have their fantasies to themselves without being threatened or banned they wouldn’t feel so desperate and need to act them out and hurt someone. Certainly no one should be busted for looking at pictures on the internet.

Its good news for filesharers but I can not swallow such biased news. When something is reported I like the reporting to be done with an unbiased perspective and then we as the readers should dissect analyze and interpret thus drawing our own conclusions. This article a dichotomy of my previous point states “ake a “more activist role” with illegal file-sharing will pretty much be pointless.” This is only one example of clearly hackneyed biased reporting.

Well if you are so great at it or know how it should be done then do it yourself.

Nobody is forcing you to read this you know.
