Not really. The P2P assm^H^H^H^H architects are reissuing new systems with
holes patched reactively. There's no reason for a P2P system designed in 1996
to be water-tight to any threat model of 2010. (Strangely enough, they had
IP nazis and lawyers back then, too).

I think he was primarily one thing: frustrated. It's hard to see the idiots
