Re: Slap n' tickle


Finding that much good content that has not been filtered by public
opinion, as top hits are, would take a very long time kissing frogs
looking for princes. So I think the real issue is not so much the
speed of the Internet as how the data is managed, and how the
information is managed and accessed.
Youtube is a great success story. They are managing the data well. And
it could be faster agreed, but at least the data is managed well.

You see the problem with the Internet is how the data is managed.
And that is also the computer problem in general.
Speed is not so much an issue as better more logical or efficient
management of data.

Case in point.

The P2P system like Kazaa or the like where files are not named in
accordance with their contents, where multiple renamed duplicates
exist, and where basically there has been a catastrophic contamination
of the data.
Censorship, mis and dis information and war.

Some people playing God particle on the Internet. They want everyone
else to obey them.
You may or may not agree with them, but who the heck are they to tell
you what you should be looking at or listening to anyways.
Well you can say its a copyright issue and you can say its a moral
issue etc but its a global issue, and each adult should be responsible
for their own censorship.

But the torrent system, made some concessions. They did away with the
porn and in return they have a clean attack free (for the most part)
system of stealing copyright material.
More efficient and faster and better organized.

The attacks on P2P were merely infest the thing with disgusting porn,
the worst gross stuff you could imagine, lower the bar into the muck,
and then, use that to approach others and say, well look at it, we
need to attack it now.

The torrent system merely doesn't allow that contamination to infest
the system, and hence the attackers can't garner sufficient support to
attack it with vigor.

Keeping in mind it has been a republican world for the last 8 years
and they are as dumb as a sack of hammers, not knowing or caring who
infested it, or why, they just want to get them and spend your money
doing it.

But its a matter of design, and the initial design has to be bullet
proof, and then you will avoid all the problems.

Not enough goes into design. It all goes into band-aid solutions.

Look at all the problems with hacking and snooping and the enormous
amount of money spent on that problem, then take a look at VMWARE, and
imagine a virtual computer, that sits on your desktop, that is running
from an image, and is disposable, and only it has access to the
Internet, the rest of your pc does not. And no matter what happens to
it, you can just restore snapshot, and it is back in pristine
condition.
Impervious to attack. By design. Even if something happens, and it
gets totally infested, the next time you use it, it is back to the way
it was when it was brand new.
The only thing you are doing, is taking data into that virtual machine
across a virtual wall and removing data across that wall to your host
pc.
The browser is not the message.
You don't have your mail box in your living room. You have it outside,
and data flows to your front door, and then, you bring it into the
house. You do not let the entire world into your house. You lock your
door.
