First is was the RCIAA that hired independent contracters to monitor what users are downloading from peer to peer networks. Now campuses are. In a NEWS.COM article posted today, congress is getting involved and putting pressure on campuses to crack down on people who share copywrited materials.

I propose that we implement an encrypted peer to peer network. That way, spyware won't be able to track what a user is downloading because the download will be encrypted.

I am surprised not to hear anyone else mention this. These agencies and the goverment are violating our privacy. Lets stop them now by using strong key encryption!

I am new to this board, but a computer scientist that wants to get involved!! Feel free to email me.

Encryption will make everything go slower. It's feasible, but will take a while. You will also have, if you're in the USA, remove access to Iran, Iraq, Cuba, N. Korea, and other countries that are under a U.S. embargo, etc.
