That's nothing, every operating system was used for copyright infrighment too! Bill Gates has clearly contemplated mass-scale music downloading when creating windows, unless he was living under the rock.

Sarcasm aside, universal tools are like that - people use them for many things.

My curiosity is because every other P2P filesharing tool written before BitTorrent was used for copyright infringement. Bill Gates is a different situation, because there were no PCs before he wrote Altair Basic. There were plenty of P2P filesharing services before BitTorrent, though.

You can't predict the future, but you ought to have a pretty good idea what's happening in the present.
