Re: HAH!

It is not illegal to provide a caching server, even if 99.999999999% of what is on it is illegal, so long as they don't look at it. They can provide the cache server and just set it and forget it, and so long as they don't check to see if the content is copyrighted, it won't be illegal.

Exactly. There is no difference between running a P2P cache and running news servers. Both have a little legit content and enormous amounts of not so legit content
