"rather, they're chasing down sites that make Kazaalite available for download"

I've been using this app since Morphues got kicked off Fast Trak, and it's quite nice. The same coders made a hacked version of Morphues, but the Kazaa hack is even better. What's especially wonderful about Kazaa's reaction is that they are providing a platform for its distribution. And if they start blocking downloads of it, they'll prove that they have control over their network and open themselves back up to lawsuits. I love it!

I particularly liked this quote from Sharman Networks:
"Consumers are being deceived with ripped off and highly suspect code, and we are determined that their rights, enjoyment and machines are not prejudiced."

How nice of them to think of our rights. After all, "Yuri" could have included any number of malicious apps. What if s/he decided to add a few lines of code that kept track of what web pages we visited, or took information that we entered onto forms, and sold this data to an offshore company? I mean, we don't know anything about "Yuri", this guy/chick could be screwing us even now!

Actually, what really pisses me off is the unmitigated gall expressed by the choadmuffins at Sharman Networks. Do they really believe that their aggrandized bullshit will make the internet community forget that THEY have been screwing US?
