Default Why that won't work

There have not been any lawsuits against p2p-users for sharing music yet. If they finally come to Germany, I will start using my ISPs http proxy to upload files, so they cannot track my IP.
I've had this discussion many times and although this is not specific to the LimeWire community but applies to P2P in general i think it's worth a look.

It's a FAQ on why anonymous P2P won't work.
