i heard about on talksport a while ago and have just read abit into it just wondered if anyone had heard of it and what do you think?

bloke runs the site seemed abit space cadetish

One line I did not like:

"Users contribute to the network by giving bandwidth and a portion of their hard drive (called the "data store") for storing files."

So someone is going to store encrypted files on my hard drive and I will not have access to them nor know what they contain. AND they will use my bandwidth to do it and to re-access their files.

No Thanks.

the presenter, ask if it was abit like the Matrix, when the bloke answered the alarm bells were ringing!

All the pedophiles are going to love this one - anonymous undetectable file sharing ;)

"I worry about my child and the Internet all the time, even though she's too young to have logged on yet. Here's what I worry about. I worry that 10 or 15 years from now, she will come to me and say 'Daddy, where were you when they took freedom of the press away from the Internet?'"

If he worries about his child and the internet all the time then he needs to get out more, breathe some fresh air and start leading a normal life; and if he thinks she'll be asking him about freedom of the press in 15 years he's got another thing coming - she'll more likely be asking for a tenner for some cider.

Rant over.
