How I spy on Gnutella for big corporations

The author of this thread brings up a VERY important point.

Do not underestimate any of the forces who would stop file sharing, and be ever vigilant for attacks on the network - they take many shapes and forms.

I would like to also point out another scenario - they could simply offer an existing Gnutella servent (BearShare?) a lot of cash to take over their product in secret.

They would have to pry BearShare out of my dead fingers before I let that happen.

Yes it is. If Morpheus didn't have an open-source client to leach off of then this would never have happened.

Yes, you're right... I was just talking about hurting the network in general, though.

I believe there are a couple of closed-source clients that could be (or are already) used for that kind of attack:

- BearShare maybe Vinnie has got an evil twin brother or something or he is cloned by some evil corporation
- Shareaza Who are those guys anyway? Judging from their speed of development, they have quite some resources. Shareaza consists of two words 'share' and 'reaza'. If you change the order of the first two letters the second word becomes 'eraza' or 'eraser'. So Shareaza really is the 'share eraser'. I think Shareaza is sponsored by the RIAA to destroy gnutella once it's popular enough.
- Morpheus 2.0 Incompetence might even be a greater danger to the gnutella network than the RIAA
- QTrax Everyone should know by now that it was created to destroy gnutella.

Taliban, that is exactly the point.
I think the only way to avoid those problems is to opensource the clients. Gnucleus & LimeWire did it and both clients can be trusted.
But hey, isnt it a bit like the Illuminati stuff?
If you change the order of the first two letters the second word becomes 'eraza' or 'eraser'. So Shareaza really is the 'share eraser'

I mean that 23 stuff? (Adam Weisshaupt was the founder, he was born 1723, W is the 23th letter in the alphabet, if you take 2 + 3 its 5, 5 is the number of the devil (pentagramme (penta = five)). Blablabla

Hello!

NO!

I do not underestimate the threats to the network I am fully aware of them but I think that this specific post was a joke and I do not believe in his/hers story about someone paying him/her to create such a client the fact that the user posted as unregistered just incresed my suspicion to the post and that it is just a joke or someone trying to get attention.

Yeah, if they use the Search function...

Maybe they should delete older posts? I'm new and was just browsing and saw this thread - I guess I found the current posts boring ...

Well as I said LimeWire rocks no such problems!.Open Source will prevent the network from dying

Taliban can you tell me why the war against Shareaza? and what did Qtrax do to destroy the network nothing to my knowledge?.Just proof of the Gnutella protocol strenght against attacks.

Why do you think that BearShare are destroying the network?

[its love]

That's for sure.
