Posted on 12/01/2010 7:15:29 AM PST by My hearts in London - Everett

The domain seizures by the United States authorities in recent days and upcoming legislation that could make similar takeovers even easier in the future, have inspired a group of enthusiasts to come up with a new, decentralized and BitTorrent-powered DNS system. This system will exchange DNS information through peer-to-peer transfers and will work with a new .p2p domain extension.

yep....the techies who like to pirate movies and music will always be three or four steps ahead of dullards like Janet Napolitano. Does not mean we don’t have to fight the very serious legal issues raised by what she’s done.

I will be watching for more developments of this. I would also like more information regarding WHO exactly is doing this.

I am praying that freedom will not be curtailed.

I guess that’s a good place to leave a spleen if you’re gonna leave it somewhere. ;~D

The RIAA and Hollyweird own the Democrat party so this is just the Democrats doing their paymaster’s bidding. You can see how vigorously the Democrats wage war on torrent sites. And how slack they are when it comes to Julian Assange and our Muslim terrorist enemies

Our government is power mad and will try to take over anyway, even if they don’t have the mental capacity to understand what the internet really is.

An oldie but a goodie — “The internet treats censorship as damage and works around it.” A lesson to remember with the calls to stomp out Wikileaks.
