Flooding File Sharing Networks With
Bogus Files: Patented


Flooding File Sharing Networks With
Bogus Files: Patented
05/05/2004 05:10 PM
Well, here's a nice convergence story covering two topics we discuss on a regular basis: file sharing and ridiculous patents. A computer science professor has now received a patent on the process of flooding a file sharing network with bogus files to annoy people trying to download files. How is this not obvious? It didn't take a professor and a doctoral student to come up with this idea. Plenty of folks in the industry just went ahead and did it themselves. The professor also makes the same tired old mistake of saying that file sharing is the same thing as stealing a CD out of a store - something that even the Supreme Court has said is not true. Copyright infringement is definitely illegal, but it's not the same thing as stealing a physical object. Of course, some may say that this will make it more expensive for others to flood such P2P networks with fake files (and therefore a good thing), but relying on a bad patent isn't the way to go. I wonder if this patent covers flooding the patent office with bogus patents as well?
