“Call me crazy, but I am far more concerned that these P2P tools are creating an untraceable infrastructure for *real* crime than for pseudo-crime. One of these days thereâs going to be a huge story about Iran coordinating with Hezbollah using encrypted P2P VoIP routed through a decentralized onionskin network, or Al Qaeda distributing terrorist materials using BitTorrent 3.0 – and how the worldsâ nations are fundamentally unable to stop itâ¦ unless you give up more of your rights to privacy, free speech, and other crucial civil liberties.”

And THEY will claim that it is in the benefit of children that you give up more of your rights to privacy, free speech, and other crucial civil liberties. THEY are already building an army of oprahmoms with the help of brainwashing channels like Oprah; and there are simply too many of them to fight against. Oprahmoms are also customers of the entertainment kartels who keep them afloat.

BTW the xbt tracker on standard setup per server could handle 350,000 clients with tweaks a half million or more.
how many servers are there out there running at under capacity , OMG loads and loads, so don’t give me this about some mass movement.
all a load a cripe and the one thing that will happen is the mpaa/ifpi trying there DOS crap to make it appear that way.
when you add the fact that in time payback comes.

This is ridiculous scaremongering. TPB going down would not cause other sites to do the same!

Um, Eric, that’s what he’s saying.

This is ridiculous scaremongering. TPB going down would not cause other sites to do the same! What about all those times TPB went down owing to glitches or hacks or server moves?

Another thing is that many of today’s torrents are multi-tracker, which means that they’re already set up for continued sharing through other trackers if one goes down. The result would be no increase in tracker bandwidth, as the other sites were already tracking them.

Thirdly, private sites such as Demonoid would be largely unaffected as most of those who wish to use a private tracker have already switched to one. The only bad thing would be if TPB going down convinced enough people to switch to private sites; but historically this has not brought anything down. (I myself switched to Demonoid some years ago from a well-known public tracker that was brought down by court order.)

“One of these days thereâs going to be a huge story about Iran coordinating with Hezbollah using encrypted P2P…”

I was actually expecting this propaganda from the Bush crowd.
It fits in perfectly with all the other “terrorist threats” they concocted to take away American liberties “in order to keep you safe”.

I was a bit surprised when the P2P “threat” wasn’t brought up.

I can’t believe they are wasting so much time and so many resources trying to stop this. It might be able to pay off if it were only a few thousand people sharing files online, but there are millions of people in every country with internet doing it across the globe.

I think they need to regroup and find a new strategy to stay viable and relevant by harnessing this power instead of continually trying to fight it head-on through courts.
