"So when you click "Share This Folder," whether you understand its implications or not, you've authorized the world to play with your drive, and have no right to complain."
Excuse me? So if someone nukes your hard drive because you don't understand the implications of your actions (hey, you shared it read/write, right?) that's morally justifiable and furthermore something that's fine to base a business on?
And I suppose when you install linux with a vulnerable version of statd and someone breaks into your system that's fine too, because you chose to install it?
I guess this means that all abuses of other people's computers are not problematic, because the owner of the system knew the risk of being on the Internet - e.g. no software is perfect and 100% secure - when they connected. Actually, it doesn't even matter if the owner did know, they should have.
