Exclusive: IPFilterX – The New Anti-P2P IPBlocklist on the Web
Date : 2008 06 07 Category : Web News
When file-sharing users think of filtering their P2P experience, they think of something like PeerGuardian. When they think of a filtering list, they typically think of BlueTack. Now, there is a rival to BlueTack and it's called IPFilterX.
When it comes to filtering IP addresses, the general goal for file-sharing users is to, to put it bluntly, 'block out the bad guys'. These bad guys, naturally, are anti-p2p companies that, among other things, attempt to pollute p2p with fake files or capture an IP address that can result in a legally flimsy lawsuit where a vast majority are forced to settle due to a threat of a long and costly legal battle.
