I would think that a good lawyer would point out the absurdity of the node =
operator having any responsibility. Just because someone builds a road and =
that road is used to commit a crime does it make the road builder responsib=
le? Of course not. Node operators are not monitoring or filtering traffic a=
nd have no knowledge whatsoever how the traffic is being used.

Wouldn't that mean that any mainstream ISP would also be liable for one =

of their customers committing a crime while using their service?
Or GM is liable if a driver of a GM car gets drunk & injures someone?
