And why shouldn't people be allowed to know if someone is sharing "0". |
Actually, the poll is quite correct, since the subject being considered is "does LW allow X or not allow X".
The phrasing of it
may seem biased, but the limitation of options to just 2 isn't.
The question this poll addresses is simply, "should a user be able to disable the channel of
'Browse Host' as a means by which query hits are sent." Plain & simple. =-)
Note that the option for "I'll get those shared file lists anyway" doesn't really address the actual 'Not allow X' issue, which (to use the poll submitters style fo phrasing) "It doesn't prevent you from seeing my files if you try hard enough, therefore I shouldn't be allowed to prevent you from seeing them based only upon knowledge of my IP address"
