THE FUNNY: Exploiting Peer-to-Peer Networking: I have lost all faith in humanity.

[Actaeon]

I don't think its that bad, but may be too harsh for work.

The Funny

Couldn't stop laughing... good stuff .

EDIT: I searched for Peer and p2p, so I don't think this is a repost.

I think kazaa may have automatically renamed them.

sometimes you search for a song and get 60 entries. If you expand some fo them, you'll see weird names...

 

[Joemonkey]

great, now all kinds of people will be doing this! how will i get my grandma bingo sex and KNOW it's grandma bingo sex?!?!

 

[hevnsnt]

LOL good read.. (and I was pissed when I downloaded what turned out to be pink floyd that day..

 

[MercenaryForHire]

I'd say the work filters would pick it up purely on text content, though it's perfectly "safe".

And hilarious.

it was probably reading the id tag, most people don't look at the file name.

 

[Wuffsunie]

Now that is funny

You have to wonder about some of them, though. Were people looking for Grandma Sex, or Bingo Sex, or the combination?

Exactly. This is dumb.

I dunno, do video's have ID Tags? But I do know that even videos you can see one file with many different file names on KaZaa and it makes the first name of the group the most popular name so he was probably just getting folks looking for the original file(s).

Dang, I was sure dissapointed to not see Grandma taking it on the Bingo Table.

 

[Crazymofo]

I really want to see that emu take a vicious dump too :|:|:|:|

 

[eakers]

i wouldnt mind having that emu video and renaming it to hot lesbian sex.

 

[PanzerIV]

Oh man that was funny. That guy is a hilarious writer. That truly made my night.

No ID tags but KaZaa does use file hashing to identify identical files with different names.

That's another way people could accidentally download his files, but also, he was just renaming audio files:

I had been downloading music yesterday evening. Led Zeppelin, REO Speedwagon, Flock of Seagulls, things like that. Then I realized that it'd be a funny joke to play on people if I were to change "Keep on Rolling" to "Hot Lesbian Sex". I watched as within minutes this file got 50 downloads. I was astounded.
