Tribler also means you're an exit node?

[Cathal Garvey]

It is also chock-full of child-porn torrents, based on my limited 
testing. So not only are you exposing yourself to copyright infringement 
suits..

I filed a "bug" before I heard just how terrible their crypto was, 
simply to say that I should be able to add a block-list or filter to the 
kinds of things I'll be an exit for. I haven't heard back since. 
Relaying, sure; I don't know what I'm relaying, and I'm willing to agree 
that the importance of freedom of speech and privacy is critical enough 
to accept some risk of relaying stuff I consider inhuman. But exiting, 
when I have every ability to choose to block that shit? That's a blatant 
missing feature, right there.

Then I saw the code, and cried a little. The unpadded RSA, the mess of 
optional dependecies and woeful fallbacks, import soup.. there is a dark 
side to the kind of coding freedom Python allows you, and this is deep 
dark-side magic right here.

Do not want. apt-get purge.
