Some of us don’t care about this. It’s always worked like that and it doesn’t bother us. We just want to access the information that we are interested in.
I find this comment surprising because I don’t know what I’d do without BitTorrent - what are the alternatives? Edonkey, gnutella, etc are all dead. Just yesterday I downloaded an entire series in a matter of minutes thanks to BitTorrent. That would’ve taken ages over emule.
I don’t see how any of this was the executives fault. They have no idea of computer security and hired people who they thought were competent to handle it.
