Default Misguided Parents

Lulli17

I am a parent myself I can say this, in all truthfulness, that you are misguided. If you had done any research into this product you would have found out that this software is not a childs' toy, in fact most of us in this forum have always said that this product should not be used by anyone under 16 without supervision.

First of all, this software is not a music, video or game downloading application, it is a file sharing application that allows you, as a PC owner, share files with other PC owners from all over the world. As PC owners happen to be adults the files they share will be of an adult nature and the only controls are self control. Therefore, there is no central file server just hundreds of thousands, perhaps millons, of PCs that this software allows you to connect with.

Now, if you want to download music, films, etc. from a controlled/regulated environment then you should use your browser and download from Amazon.com or similar.

Just remember that no one can tell adults what they can or cannot share on their own PCs, and some adults can be pretty sick, so therefore it is down to you to protect your children, not the Limewire Org., or anybody else.

So next time you purchase software for your children do a bit of research into what it does before accusing anyone of "putting porn" out there.
