A peer-to-peer -Boycott Utility Tool-

Saeed al-Sahaf | 28.03.2003 00:20

There's a very nice tool named AntiMafia...

There's a very nice tool named AntiMafia, created by a 'subvARTising'
group and based on a sound democratic principle. It can use peer-to-peer
protocol (Gnutella, I think) to syncronize some net-boycotting actions like
-Denial of Service- or more. I tried it, but it probably isn't fully operational
yet... It seems that the group did not develop some pieces of code...
I don't know, I'm not a programmer, but it is an Open Source Code for Windows
and I think someone able to programme could look into this useful tool.

Denial of service attacks

Are you for freedom or not? If you are then you must accept that many people, with power or without it, are going to disgree with your point of view and say things that you consider to be dangerous, immoral, incorrect or just plain nasty.

Denial of service attacks should not be considered a legitimate tool to silence such people. Denial of service = denial of free speech.

the best way to 'attack' those who say things you do not like is present you own alternative view - which is what site's like Indymedia are all about.

You and I might hate to hear pro-war 'news' and US/UK propaganda, but that's just tough. We have to hear it and we have to refrain from fascits acts like Denial of Service attacks. If you don't like what you hear, say so. That is the only right way to go about it.

**In my opinion** ;-)
