yes ill agre to that, but if im not running gnutella or some other p2p app, but i have ports open on my comp. they probe my computer/ports trying to get info. how is that any different from me running nmap and portsurfing on other peoples machines? (which could easily lead to problems with my ISP)
alot of home users with cabe/dsl don't have a firewall and are sharing folders with other machines on thire LAN. wouldn't probing(and possibly mounting) theire smb-shares in fact be to gain illegal access to data/resources ?

WTF? Awh come on? the logic is not strong in this one.
im not from north-america(scandinavia actually), but i enjoy the bad acting of any star trek show( + TNG is pretty cool too). file swapping/capping/ripping/wathever will enable me to watch this episode in less than a week. so, yes, this is stuff that matters
... does this mean that if i put up a public computer somwhere. i could legaly sniff passwords and data because people using it could not expect privacy using my public computer?
ie. have we no expectation of privacy when using a computer on a network/ sending information over a computer network? knowing that a sysadmin could sniff the information? weak argument at best.

that was the naming of the kernel called linux, the kernel is called linux but the whole OS with glibc+++.. is what he is talking about. he makes some valid point's since many of the things in a GNU/Linux distribution comes from the GNU project. hence he thinks that the GNU project should get some credit for what is commonly refered to as linux(the name of the kernel) which is realy kernel + GNU
