If the torrent is created by someone you trust (in this case TDF), even if the data is spread through the computers of many users (that is the principle of peer to peer or p2p) you don't trust, they can ONLY send the data that was originally on the torrent created by TDF. Torrents are a way to distribute data in a reliable way (data is checked against the original string) but it has the fantastic advantage that it doesn't rely on the ability of a single server. Everyone who has successfully completed the download is then a source for others to complete theirs. The fact that the torrent method is used to transmit illegal and copyrighted material is a consequence of the success of the method. doug-2 wrote > -- > Blessed are the peacemakers...for they shall be shot at from both sides. > --A.
