Yes you're true!Even if you have a changing IP (ADSL connection,..) they always have the possibilitty to analyse the logs... But this method is a little bit more complicated. Juste one hop more before trial:-)
What happens if Kazzaa also starts to swap user names?
Imagine your user Id can change from time to time in a random way. I mean the first time you connect, then Kazzaa change your user name.
I think this principle must be the same as the file sharing system. This way when some "good" guys like RIAA try to track someone, the face about 1000 diffrent physical users...This would make lawsuit completely impraticable.
As a side notes, this kind of "resposibility-sharing" system has been applied by some french farmers who didnt' want to have the TGV to pass on thier lands: thez sold their lands m2 by m2 to local citizens at avery attractive price. It was then impossible for the SNCF company to contact every owner to by the lands to let the TGV go.
I feel this very interessting. For example I like the currents devfs and procfs (although not perfect). Those help me a lot to "debug" new hardware connection. SImple and coherent.
I also imagine some RDB support. Imagine a "select * from account" where account would be asimple directory. Would be nice to use "find" for the where clause:-)
Imagine also implementting OO classes wiht inheritenace using symlinks... And more...
Fun to see this car is ok Ok to go in swiss motorway: On the 3td piture from the bottom one ca see the 'stample' on the windshield. This simply says the car's owner has paid the taxes to go on the swiss motorway:-)
Crayon means 'pencil' in french. Is is funny to see that some could use virtualy any words in a dictionnary and protect it for its own usage....
I should try to protect 'slash':-)
I think that the best is learning everybody that behind the GUI world there is something else. Here in Europe new developers know a lot about GUIs (generally ONLY one). They can do a lot of amaying things usings tricks with them. Very impressive. The Drawbacks is when the have to use an other GUI, or even have to use a different tool they are not used to (Tuxedo, MSQueries,...) Usually we have to spend a lot of time with them teaching the "real world"!
But what is funny is that after some times, we observe GUI gurus begining to use CLI. I think one should know about the both world: know how to use a GUI efficiently (I mean with kb shortcuts), and know how to use the CLI ofr automated tasks and other tricks.
As sayed previously by other:
Try to imagine an automated world only with a GUI...
Try to imagine to pipe commands in a GUI world
Try to imagine to put all the possible commands in the GUI of vi/XEmacs
On the other hand:
Try to imagine teaching the tricks of a grep piped with find to newbies
I feel that GUI are good for intrductions, but evry body should know (learn) about the CLI world.

3D worlds are getting more and more common.
Here is an alternative, you can even create and share your own objects and scripts: Second Life
Come in France, Switzerland or Austria, and try to learn this new activity:

Hmmmm. Makes me wonder... I thought it was a Urban Legend: never heard about this before. but then...

Very intersting atricle, and always nice to see articles coming from your Alma Mater...
