    With bittorrent if I am downloading 5 files, I am registered as a peer 5 times. If I am downloading 100 files I'm in the peer table 100 times. Having 10 million peers is not the same as having 10 million separate people making use of the site.

  20. Re:gmail spam on Are Spammers Giving Up? · · Score: 1

    google try to be smart about typos and such. if the email address is similar to yours and nothing more similar exists they will send the mail to you. try sending an email from a non gmail account to something similar to your actual gmail address. mail to m.e-w.i.t.h.o.u.t-t.h.e-d.o.t.s@gmail.com gets to me straight away, as does myusualgmailaddress-blahxxxwtf@gmail.com. Some people call it a feature, some a bug. Either way google appear to discard as few mails they can. I'd estimate that 99% of the incorrect email addresses routed towards my actual email address end up in the spam folder. I see maybe 2 or 3 a week. I get hundreds of spams daily (and a huge majority of those would be directed at random but pretty similar non-existent gmail addresses)
