Code from Kazaa is resurrected in nefarious scheme to block pirated content

Who remembers Kazaa? It was only a few years ago that Kazaa and Napster were running the Internet with peer-to-peer file sharing networks. Then things got crazy as the RIAA and others cracked down on file sharing networks, and life changed for all of us. Now the same people who helped create and share pirated content, are working on software that will block it, and the way it will be done might get you upset and thinking this has bullshit written all over it.

What is Net Neutrality?

Net Neutrality has been coming up a lot recently in the media. So if you don’t know what it is, you might find yourself asking what does it mean? What is the big deal? Well, it really is a big deal, that is unless money is of no object to you. But to most of us, we care about our wallets and don’t want to be ripped off when Lord knows someone is trying to pull the wool over our eyes. I could go on and explain to you what Net Neutrality is, but I came across The Open Internet (website), and well, they do one hell of a bang up job explaining it in such simple terms and in such a beautiful visually appeasing way.
