open source is legal

so why doesnt kazza lite and those people release the source to kazza and have us compile our selves change it so our ip is masked etc.

They are immune due to 1st ammendment rights

We are immune cause we cant be traced and we can use anysoftware we want on our computer in case they do trace some how

Maybe........

you are fairly off base here. The courts have begun to say the software is not illegal, but illegal use of the software is. The makers of the software are held liable if it can be shown they inteded the use of the program to be for illegal purposes. If file sharing programs were inhernetly illegal, MS would be in for a treat (Windows file sharing...).
