Have you ever sought such assistance in that area yet?

The idea of P2P software is sharing.
Many P2P communities rate your sharing ratios, giving connective priority to those who DO share.
(Taking without sharing is typically viewed as “leaching”.)

A P2P user ALREADY HAS CONTROL of what is shared, without the advertising-subsidized, malware-assisted add-on service.
I haven’t seen too many P2P softwares that don’t offer this control. ...
Leech software. Interesting. Not to mention the lack of copyright file sharing of course. Reminds me a lot of The Story: Shareaza, iMesh, RIAA, and Recent Events.

I am ashamed that a Canadian is pulling this scam. Even going to US congress with the fabricated crap and scare tactic.

The American users have every right to be Canada bashing now.

No Trest. The FACT is that you are selling off people. Selling off these fake security apps to put your real focus, peersentry crap, onto people and f'**ing their communications.

With what we see in that patent filing, you are the same as an ID fraudster.

Ultimate parasite

What makes you think the file sharers in question – those concerned with getting “inadvertently” (as you say) nailed downloading the wrong file – would trust connecting to your networks, knowing you propose not only enabling the advertisers, but possibly serving up the users to groups like the RIAA.

You’re obviously a parasite.
Dare I say more. I think this about finishes this topic.
