Thanks for your detailed bug report. However, based on your graph, which contains clear evidence of copyright infringement (there *is* legal music on Freenet, but the Thaw instance shown includes stuff that is almost certainly not legal), you have just earned a permanent ban from the support list. Because of this I will not be able to act on any of the issues you mentioned, as this would be equivalent to providing tech support to known pirates. Please go away and don't come back. Sorry folks, but PIRACY WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. This policy is the result of MGM vs Grokster, where the Supreme Court of the United States of America found the defendant guilty because amongst other reasons, it provided technical support to people it knew to be engaged in copyright infringement. The EFF's peer to peer advice is not to provide tech support at all, but IMHO this is more or less impossible for an open source project. See here: http://www.eff.org/wp/iaal-what-peer-peer-developers-need-know-about-copyright-law Freenet Project Inc is incorporated in the USA under Californian law. I have a responsibility not to get them into legal trouble, although I am based in England.
