Being a Dallasite, I've followed Cuban both on the Interwebs and on TV during his DWTS stint. I saw his posts about P2P a couple days ago, and wrote my own rebuttal. Read it here. It's a little too long to post here in comments.
they own their frickin code? hahaha! yeah, i "own some code" myself, but i'd never stop anyone from viewing it online. they didn't even write the frickin code! it was written by adobe golive! also, if they think that IPs are not "personally identifiable" then they obviously arent too privy of internet law and how the internet works. having done tech support for a damn decade, i can tell you that you can lookup the owner of an IP online, usually resulting in the naming of a person's ISP, or the naming of a person, personally, if they own the IP. if they own it, you've personally identified them. if they don't, their isp can personally identify them. what a bunch of fucktards.
