Crikey. Like it's difficult to find porn.
I really don't understand this. You can type in a keyword of any weird fetish you have and get hundreds of hits. Why bother the people who are just looking for music? What good can it do?

okay, but he shouldn't use gnutella to advertize his porn site by renaming the ad to what ever queries are sent with a robot either. that's what he's doing.

its really annoying now he's shortened it to 35kb from 76kb.
it's still a scam

porn is not hard to find on the web if you want it and to hard to avoid as popups, we don't need his FRAUD.

i only posted the ip address because he posted it in a short video clip claiming to be something else.

i only sought to expose what he was really up to saving others the bother of downloading the waste of bandwidth.

if he wants to advertize a porn site, he can pay for that advertizing, as is he's no better than a panhandling shoplifting street junkie.

i believe robots should either be available to all or to none. least of all to porn hustlers doing known fraud.

imho

Aight, I might be a bit on the "right wing" on this, but I actually think it serves well to post IP here. Of course, we can argue the pro and cons about this, but meanwhile, I don't see why someone should not be allowed to warn others about the harm which was imposed upon.
If you want to wipe the IPs, discuss first and convince us. I don't see why you should wipe them out without the users' consent. For heaven's sake, it's just an IP.
