Doing that makes things worse, a lot worse. If any one node only has, say, %5 of the parts in a inciminating file you can be pretty sure it's from other nodes requesting data through it. If it has %100 you can be pretty sure that the user requested the file. The same applies to websites on freenet. (freesites) We should have an option for locally-requested files to not be cached on your node because of this. Then you would have to examine your neighboring nodes to figure out what you've been requesting, a very difficult task. -- GCS d s+:-- a--- C++++ UL++++ P L+++ E W++ N- o K- w-- O- M V- PS+ PE+ Y+ PGP+++ t 5 X R+ tv-- b+ DI+ D++ G e- h! r-- y-- pete at petertodd.ca http://retep.tripod.com -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
