No issue whatsoever! I was simply making the point that something had been done to weed out one of the types of problems discussed in this topic, even though it was an extreme example & certainly not a direct example. (I was feeling tired & frustrated at not finding the post I was after.) Pity something couldn't be done about the spammers & 'loaded' files, etc. As for child pornography which is initiated & attracted to by those who arguably shouldn't be allowed on the streets, I feel the same. As for policing the Gnutella network, that's a tough issue. I'm sure people wouldn't compromise the system in order to keep out those who abuse it in ways I mentioned earlier. I don't suppose you or anybody else have any other suggestions about how to overcome these issues or what could be included in future P2P soft versions to weed out these menaces. The latter area, if included as 'more improved' filters might help the average person not have to have 'those' bandwidths connecting to your computer. It's certainly a difficult & broad topic & it expands very easily.
