Re: Is it that hard P2P software effectively turns your pc into a public server.
Like it or not, Comcast's TOS explicitly prohibits public servers.
Is that so hard to understand?

DSL-Extreme specifically allows public servers, with the exception of an open mail relay.

p2p isn't really a public server. Otherwise uploading anything to someone else is the same as a public server. And most services you run have some kind of registration, making them not public, but private. Even if the registration is simply providing a username when you login, the service is now privatized. Would a webserver with a password be a public server? If so that TOS is basically hogwash. |
