Is P2P a meme technology?
>>54765508
Yes
>>54765508
No, it should be the way the internet works
>>54765508
Everytime you describe something as a meme, without additional explanation, someone somewhere, with explosive diarrhea forgets to wash their hands before handling your food.

>I want malware to be unavoidable
>>54765564
How do you figure?
>>54765585
Did you look at the picture?
>>54765652
Yes, you haven't explained how peer-to-peer networking makes malware unavoidable.

Are you aware of the idea that one bad apple ruins the entire bunch?
Think of this and look how each computer is connected
>>54765652
Are you fucking retarded?
>>54765724
Yes, if you don't take any precautions. Do people's bittorrents get ruined with garbage data?
>>54765724
Ah, yes. Yes, you are.
>>54765724
p2p doesn't make it more or less likely to get malware. It's a way to get data.
Think about this:
If instead of accessing a google server to get your data, you accessed a P2P network to get the same data.
How does one make the other more malware prone?

>bittorrent is p2p
I thought this was a technology board
>>54765742
Googlel is a botnet therefore its contents is malicious

>BitTorrent is a communications protocol of peer-to-peer file sharing
>>54765774
It's not p2p in the classic meaning. You don't retrieve an entire file from a single source, you receive pieces of it from multiple sources.
>>54765785
>i dont know what im talking about
>>54765785
Yes from multiple peers.
P2P is jewish technology

lol ok mate.
>a p2p network with file transfers verified with sha sums or something
>cannot modify the official sha sum without a majority of botnet computers sharing it
>a server based network
>hack it and modify/swap the file and sha sum hosted on it
>thousands of pcs infected because the admin was lazy/unaware
looking at you mint (but not thousands here lmao)
>>54765795
So then it's p2ps (peer to peers) not p2p you fucking autistic retard. Go back to college kid.
>>54765774
The argument being made is that BitTorrent is not a full communications protocol. It depends on how you are defining network. Ask a CCNP about a P2P network and then ask a software engineer. You're going to get two really different answers. The diagram is vague enough that both models apply

All transmission protocols rely on layers above and below them. We're just nit picking now.
