Похоже сеть Gnutella скоро создаст собственные DNSBL сервера,
во всяком случае это активно обсущдаеться. Случай не единичный.

Well first post here , cause i feel i must speak up 

/me steps on soapbox 

Yesterday i got tired of seeing hundreds of unrelated downloads popping up from 
a very restricted number of peers , and i started to dig around a bit.. 

Well this is the result . 

whois 64.15.234.238

network:Network-Name:64.15.234.224
network:IP-Network:64.15.234.224/27
network:Organization;I:Overpeer, Inc
network:Street;I:110 E. 55th Street,
network:City;I:New York
network:State;I:NY
 

network:Network-Name:64.15.224.0
network:IP-Network:64.15.224.0/19
network:Organization;I:Exodus IDC - NJ/NY1

network:City;I:Santa Clara
network:State;I:CA

Some more digging turned out ( bless Google ) 
that overpeer is a self described anti piracy and information 
gathering agency for Hollywood Digital amongst others.. 

Yes of course..
There we go.. this whole network should be instantly banned and 
marked as hostiles.I now block the whole 64.15.0.0/255.255.0.0
in the client and on the firewall.
I certainy hope noone  will try or be tempted to share with them 
anything.Obviously they are doing what they claim is illegal to gather
information on users.That sounds like wiretapping in disguise to me ... 
This is the tip of the iceberg.

Anyways i sincerely hope someone out there is making a ban list of peers
that will work in the client.
They are polluting the networks encouraging people to do what they claim
is illegal by offering thousands of song downloads , which is in my modest
opinion a sting operation that should be way more publicised and hopefully
challenged in court.
