Step 4: Stay Informed
Posted by AlternativeAngelo Sotira in on December 3, 2001 at 7:57 PM



It's important to stay informed about all the things going on with Gnutella. P2P technology is really important. Some of your basic rights are being challenged in courts of law at this very moment. A couple of important decisions came down recently, both of which affect you greatly. 2600.com lost their appeal of a decision made last August regarding the well-publicized DeCSS linking case. Basically, the court is saying it is illegal for you to place a hyperlink on your site to a piece of information because the information could be used to commit copyright infringement. Let me repeat that. The court is saying you can’t place a *hyperlink* on your site.

In a separate case, the lawsuit filed by the Electronic Frontier Foundation and Professor Edward Felten against the Recording Industry Association of America was thrown out of court recently. This case was filed as a reaction to the threat issued against Felten by the RIAA after he found flaws in the SDMI watermarking scheme last year. As a result of the threat, an academic presentation on the flaws was cancelled. The lawsuit was an attempt to challenge the validity of such threats against academic research.

Many fundamental rights like the freedom of speech, fair use and many other rights are constantly being challenged. It is now more important than ever to keep yourself informed. Gnutella.com gives you the opportunity to stay informed and to take part in the development of the Gnutella technology. Please visit us often to help the community continue to grow.

The gnutella network faces many problems.
1. Legal can gnutella be shut down?
Yes as there are only a few major sharers, it would be easy to shut down gnutella by tracing there IP address. also there are many other legal ways to shut down the gnutella network.

2. Sharing
There is no future in p2p without sharing.
Great clients like limewire which force you to share will ultimately be the future.

3. More Options!
There are many ppl talking about adding more features to clients? like web page capabilty?
WHY p2p should be p2p nothing else the only improvements really need is better chat clients,
making them similar to messenger but without the
contacts online area.

4.Speed
There are actual ways to increase the speed of p2p clients to make there ability to be 10 times faster than any web page search or downloading.

This involves simplyfying the connection process.
simplyfying the search process having everyone connceted to the network store log files containing information on whats on the network and other crap like that. blah blah lost my train of thought. anyway i want faster and it has to start now that the security on gnutella should be like a phone box, how hard is it to get free fone calls!!! WELL it should be that difficult to shut down because sooner or later the RIAA army will be here and we havent armed ourselves well enough.

There are Gnutella help pages. Find them. If you're too lazy to, either you're just tired and hungry and maybe even cold, or you're the kind of person too lazy to buy music, who Gnutella really doesn't need.

Okay? Just to quiet you, here's advice: Most clients have directions. Follow them.

I just recently came to gnutella after finding it in an article in Time. I must say that I'm very happy with it. I'm using Xolox and I'm happy with the speed that I'm getting on my downloads. Before I found you I was using KaZaA and I wasn't that impressed at having to wait for sometimes weeks for songs to download as I have a dialup connection. Thank you.

I just discovered Gnutella in one of the programmes on TV and was more than interested to visit. Although I was more interested in the fact that they were casting you as a bad site for business. After visiting this great site, I recon there are so many interesting staff about it. I've started telling my friends about it.I now consider myself a gnute ambassador in South Africa.
