it really sucks to see threads like this and the replies that are contained
one side protecting their content and worried about programs like badoink
the other side says badoink is cool and it is the webmasters job to protect his content
I agree it is my job to protect my content to the best of my ability, but to say that I am in the wrong when someone else is charging $20-40 to access my content from their members area, is well, just ludacris
basically, what stickyfingerz is saying, is that it is ok for hackers to backdoor into a server and eat up bandwidth with a torrent they left sitting on the box, and it is the admins fault for not locking down the server properly and the hacker should not be faulted in the least
badoink provides access to illegally distributed content, plain and simple, whether or not the content owner locked it properly is irrelevant
i am curious though stickyfingerz, what is your stance on GUBA? because this is a VERY similar situation
