Whats a virus?

Sorry, im a Mac user, so its not a problem for me. What do these "viruses" do?

Viruses and P2P have nothing to do with each other and use completely unrelated delivery mechanisms.

Again, it would be trivial to shut down P2P and there is nothing developers could do to stop it or circumvent it.

When bringing up legislative actions, that is where things fall apart. Governments are too ignorant to understand how to effectively deal with this. They make a huge display of ignorance everytime they try to deal with anything Internet related.

If they ever get past that ignorance....ahhhh who am I kidding, they will never get past it.

When the computer generation is old enough then maybe. Alot of the teens today has alot of knowledge, so there is hope.

Lets say they get into polics... 30-40 years from now?

I think you have to have a frontal lobotomy to go into politics. It is probably one of the laws they have written to protect themselves from intelligence creeping into thier world.

Old gits tends to have more money than teens and I cant really even pretend to be a teen anymore so i guess ill be content with beeing an old geezer

Hack to thier hearts content, it can be shut down and no piece of software in the world could make it work again. Don't worry though. It will not happen. Ignorance in government will keep it alive.

SPAM could be shut down as well, but it would take longer. Probably a few months, at least, due to how long it has been allowed to fester. Don't worry though. It will not happen. Ignorance in government will keep it alive.

Why should I give away what would never be used anyway?

If done properly, no legitimate net traffic would be effected. I have already written the white paper on the topic and have the design done.
For me, it was an exercise in engineering. I like stuff like that.

No desire to sell it. The effort would frustrate me to no end. I have been down that road before.

Skuzzy · « **Reply #55 on:** June 28, 2005, 09:38:02 AM »

I do not give away my ideas. No point in it.

Someone else would take it, run with it, and really piss me off.

Ideas even if just remotly brilliant should be kept close to heart. I have many..

..mabe not so brilliant but then i dont keep them close to heart either

or do I?

I have "invented" one thing related to this topic, but its just an idea that i may or may not be able to realise (see my thread on wanting to learn more about networks). No hurry tho, cause its so brilliant i doubt anyone will ever think of it.

I have lost myself

what?

All I can say is that it ivolves using e-mail to make money.

There should be a rule here that protects intelectual property...

Falifan: You have mail
