Thumbs up guys!
This is how mature people discuss important issues.
Note that they all are not from the 'bearshare camp'?

It is very important to voice opinion, criticism and opposition, only then will the Gnutella network grow and still (hopefully) stay free. THAT WAS THE IDEA BEHIND IT.
If 'privat data' takes and pop-up ads take hold with gnutella clients, the free spirit behind the idea will become a memory only.
We need some programmers who can develop anti-privacy gnutella clients, to filter out all privat data, encrypted packeting and adware/pop-up data making their rounds.
I can see no other way.
Hundreds of thousands users on the gnutella net are just too much for the hungry minds of commerce. Talking alone does not stop greed.

Oh well, let's enjoy it while it lasts.

Also: Let's start more nets than just the
' GNUTELLA CONNECT/04 ' , which seems to be the only one I can see running.
