1 edit | Interesting bit of research, but..... Interesting bit of research, but I can't really see commercial sites such as amazon.com, cnn.com, et al actually allowing a consortium of residential PCs to act as the gateway to their corporate presence on the internet.
As for requiring a web visitor to download a special Java applet before being allowed to access a web site, the same web site visitors who have allowed their PCs to become part of a botnet by doing just that, probably won't notice or mind. I only allow a select few web sites to execute code on my PCs, and even those sites are only allowed to execute the code that I explicitly enable. I don't think that I am alone in this practice, and I think that the sudden drop in web site visits would trigger immediate second thoughts with any commercial operator who actually attempted to do such a thing.
