Fortunately only good people use Freenet now. The only spamming of key indexes have been from smartie-pants who couldn't resist. I don't think too many people surf the indexes. They wait for someone to go through them and post them somewhere. If someone inserts a thousand spami, it isn't hard for the index 'owner' to pick out the few good ones and make them available. The incentive for spamming Freenet would be for people to see spam. At the moment people only see filtered indexes. > Responses? > > ~Mr. Bad _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list Devl at freenetproject.org http://lists.freenetproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devl
