Comment on Sextortion with a twist: Spyware takes webcam pics of users watching porn

It’s not like it’s just some server in some persons house. They’re hosted by companies on server farms that have guaranteed uptime figures and most have 2000+ day retention of data. I’ve been using it for 10+ years and have never had any server failure type issues.

I was thinking more about legal actions. But then again torrents need trackers and search sites. It seems like it’s hard to shut down pirate bay though. I just have a feeling that usenet flies under the radar a bit, but if it became mainstream, it might be easier to shut down a server than a shifting swarm of peers?
