The idea is your illegal document would have been entangled with other legal documents. Note of the CHK files would be usable by themselves (or at least, those which are wouldn't be used for entanglement). Every CHK would be entangled into lots of different documents, so none of them could be suppressed. The thing which could be suppressed would be the formula for the illegal document, but by the time the owner learns the formula, there is another one he doesn't know and can't ask for its suppression. Besides, I don't mind reinserting my file. The whole point of this is to make enforcement of copyright absurd and infeasible, not to make my file accessible. -- Ed Huff _______________________________________________ devl mailing list devl at freenetproject.org http://hawk.freenetproject.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
