Phatbot, a mischievous P2P spamming tool, appears to to have taken hold much has a dormant virus would in a large population of PCs around the world.  Not a unique concept but one that has taken a while for the hackers to master (if indeed master they have).  The response of course should be a "kind" P2P agent that can be let loose on the network in order to seek and destroy such evil code.  The arms battle continues...

Privacy versus P2P? Freenet will win.  Again, instead of embracing the disruptive technology, the "industry" continues to fight.  And never has government anywhere beaten the innovator - unless through violence!="

So when are you breaking the law in file sharing?  The US economy will never remain dominate if this legal crap persists....

Recording industry will seek out P2P file sharing users and sue them.

Is it when you download an MP3?  What if you own the vinyl?  What about if you expose MP3 files to the network?  What if you own the vinyl, and you share the file?  Is it the sharing that violates the law, or is it the downloading of a shared file for a track for which you do not own the vinyl?  And who is breaking the law - the sharer or the downloader?  And when I say vinyl, I include any other legally purchased media.

Last ditch attempt by the diseased "establishment" to fight back against P2P file sharing. 

I think that they have forgotten that "He who lives by the sword shall die by the sword!"  This cannot work.  What next?  P2P teams hire virus hunters to smash big label servers?  Instead of fighting the "establishment" should realize that it is already dead and enthusiastically adopt the technology and kill itself; in doing so some part of it will survive; if it does not it is all likely to die and it will have no control over which parts die and when....poor people....

Some sensible lawmakers on the ruling that sets P2P network providers free. Clearly the makers of a gun cannot be held responsible for the killing...though tenuous the link surely is....and another report here.

Fascinating window into the mind of humanity - or at least that lonely part connected to the largest network known to man.
