Exclamation Gnutella needs protection before its too late

I am not a programmer but I think it would be wise for others to start to brainstorm
some ideas to enchance security on the network before the dreaded RIAA takes our
rights and ISPs away.
Limewire told me encryption would be hard to implement. Perhaps there are other
solutions.

I just worry that with supernodes around the corner and all the big network
improvements Gnutella is gonna explode in popularity and gain the size of Fast Track.
Of course its great that it will grow but thats gonna attract the RIAAs attention. I
wouldnt be suprised if they take Limewire to court and drain our beloved Limewire
team of their assets and jobs. Even if the RIAA cant win in the courts they can bankrupt
all these start up companies developing Gnutella clients.

Maybe the hacking community can implements some slick ideas.
