Well the reason that the common argument is illegal
pornography is because it is one of the few peices of infomation that is totaly
illegel. Everything from how to build a nuke to why you'd like to see Bush
dead is legal. But not KP, it has a very unique status. And the
reason people don't commonly argue copyright infringment as a reason is because
truthfuly no one cares but who ever is being infringed upon.
If you could prove that Earthlink, Hotmail, Verizon
knew that they were helping spread illegal infomation and failed to
act they could be help accountable.
I don't know if freenet could be cracked by some
sort of trojan. I think a bigger risk would come from your ISP. But
everything that we're talking about already assumes that freenet has been
cracked. Other wise the point is moot since they can't find you
anyway.
