...the reason opennap is an easy target (for the riaa, duh) is the low number of servers, but that this could be addressed by making everyone into something similar to an opennap server, with their own domain...

the idea, to put it another way, is that when you have a very large number of these unique, verifiable identities, it ceases to be a problem, unless the riaa is prepared to sue everyone who uses the network. also, remember that this thing isn't a music sharing tool, or even just a p2p tool - it's instant messaging too, and on top of that it's decentralised. overall, i believe this system would be just as resistant to attacks by the riaa and anyone else who wanted to see the end of it as gnutella is today, possibly more.
