But that is telling you something. Not a lot, and not exactly what it is, but still something. It is enough for nodes to start selectively censoring, or cancer nodes to be discriminantly destructive (a node only cancers on one type of data would filter out a lot slower, even with such systems, then one that does not). It makes a dictionary attack on the keyword for KHK much easier, and fact is that there are types that are used almost exclusively for transfers of censored data (not mp3 maybe, but anyone who ever copied DOS games remembers things like RAR and ARJ, which were hardly used elsewhere - or possibly even data files for a banned program). > -- > Lee Daniel Crocker <lee at piclab.com> <http://www.piclab.com/lcrocker.html> > "All inventions or works of authorship original to me, herein and past, > are placed irrevocably in the public domain, and may be used or modified > for any purpose, without permission, attribution, or notification."--LDC > > > _______________________________________________ > Freenet-dev mailing list > Freenet-dev at lists.sourceforge.net > http://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/freenet-dev -- Oskar Sandberg md98-osa at nada.kth.se #!/bin/perl -sp0777i<X+d*lMLa^*lN%0]dsXx++lMlN/dsM0<j]dsj $/=unpack('H*',$_);$_=`echo 16dio\U$k"SK$/SM$n\EsN0p[lN*1 lK[d2%Sa2/d0$^Ixp"|dc`;s/\W//g;$_=pack('H*',/((..)*)$/) _______________________________________________ Freenet-dev mailing list Freenet-dev at lists.sourceforge.net http://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/freenet-dev
