You guys are all talking about tech specifications. No one cares about morality, about what they have done.
?
What did they do? The IPO went a bit twisted with the whole MSC/BTC conversion thing, but immoral ?
People are free to invest in whatever they like.....I I dont really see where you're going with this.
My next question, the elephant in the room: illegal content.
How is MS going to deal with this issue ?
I'm going to assume that individual users data will be encrypted, split and then distributed to the network, so that no single farmer will be hosting a complete copy of an individual users data. This will mean that any individual farmers drive will contain a mix of random chunks of various users data. This also means that no farmer will be hosting complete copies of illegal content, (hopefully, otherwise in deep shit) but will open up all MS farmers/users and MS itself to government/law-enforcement scrutiny on this point.
I really cant see law enforcement allowing MS to roll this out without providing a backdoor for them to access/check content, but allowing a backdoor will kill the central points of security and anonymity. Has MS given any thought to this?
You can tell that NXT discussed this stuff a while ago.....
