 The only weak point Gnutella has is the Initial Connection Problem. Gnutella is indeed decentralised but at first you always need a known host to connect to. Today these known hosts are hosts like: router.limewire.com:6346 public1.bearshare.com:6346 connect1.gnutellanet.com:6346 connect2.gnutellanet.com:6346 connect3.gnutellanet.com:6346 connect4.gnutellanet.com:6346 So this would be a good place to start killing p2p. I think if anyone would shut down the most known hosts no one could connect to the network since they have no place to start. Clients who are already connected however arent affected by that problem because they have already built up a big cache of known hosts.  |
