kudos:1 | RIAA Will there be some degree of anonymity implemented in it? That's the real crux in terms of P2P programs

Why bother? |

| Probably not, but the good thing is, they won't be able to take a file down merely by nuking the tracker, because hey presto, everyone is a tracker.
All you have to do is wait for a friend somewhere who is out of xxAA's reach put it in an ftp or something for you to grab.

P2P will never has enough anonymity unless it is a paid service. There will be no company that will proxy themselves for free all the crazy bandwidth from P2P. I read somewhere that P2P is almost 40% peaks in daytime of total internet traffic. It is just too $$$.

What if it enabled others with high-speed connections to be proxy's? Just a stab in the dark.
Like the charachteristic of bittorrent, what if it sent the pieces to diffirent proxys (people running Exeem) before it reached the actual downloader? It might be a little slower, but there could be an option to toggle it on or off. |

bit torrent was never meant to have any annonymity.
If you want annonymity, just swap external hard drives with your closest friends  |

To say that has no logical sense, for amusement and to entertain others? |

I understand your points, but it's not totally true. This - »pdos.lcs.mit.edu/tarzan - is a project in the works, and needs to be advanced a lot, but there is a p2p system already in place that offers anonymity.
Winny (WinNY), the japanese p2p client offers such that, of course it's geared towards japanese users. Also sadly the programmer of the program (a prof. at a Toyko univ.) is having a lot of legal problems at the moment. Also, there have been arrests for posting material on the Winny system, but the program was not cracked, the numerous bbs that exist out there, where people can post when they are sharing new files, was compromised and they were able to capture IPs that way. For more info, please visit »en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winny . |
