Debian GNU/Hurd 2015 released! Details.

It is with huge pleasure that the Debian GNU/Hurd team announces the release of Debian GNU/Hurd 2015.

This is a snapshot of Debian "sid" at the time of the stable Debian "jessie" release (April 2015), so it is mostly based on the same sources. It is not an official Debian release, but it is an official Debian GNU/Hurd port release.

Read the announcement email.http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/

easy, ripping tools are easy to find, and usb optical drives exist, making from store bought is too easy if you Google it. and as the law is currently ripped committing a crime to catch a criminal is illegal so reputation based access is basically modern prohibition the crooks always ahead of the enforcers of the laws.

There is already a P2P network with encrypted access, reputation based access to files, and so called anti-bot measures. DC++
also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Free_file_sharing_software there are way more than just 'popcorn time'

remember there is no difference to which side of the law you are on, because the illegal side will still cause overheat failures from too high utilization(1) for the design capacity of the network. and the legal side has no qualms about lying about the numbers and make up unlimited resources(2) to use to force their programs on the networks in broadcast mode, which also fries beacons.

1. but only because the swarm has all defined themselves as real-time priority when in fact none of them deserves real-time priority
2. see capitalism.
