1: 1 Introduction
2: Having posted my copy of the snipsnap .tgz package and thinking about a presentation I was planing to do on privacy and copy right I began to investigate Bittorrent. The Pirate Bay trial is going on at the moment and the peer-to-peer nature of ~~bt~~ appeals to many libertarians.
3: I have downloaded and installed __Bit Torrent__ from the http://bittorrent.com {link:downloads page|http://www.bittorrent.com/btusers/download}.
4: I tested it using Open Office which has a bit torrent {link:distribution page|http://distribution.openoffice.org/p2p/}. This has downloaded and seeded. I need to __check__ if it requires firewall configuration to participate in a feed.
5: Ubuntu has both bittorrent and bittornado as packages.
