A Patent On P2P Spoofing?

from the that's-just-great dept

Bringing together two of our favorite issues, bad patents and P2P networks, it seems that Overpeer, one of the popular companies for Hollywood to hire to "protect" their content online has filed a patent for spoofing content on P2P networks. I guess it's no surprise that a company focused on stopping the sharing of intellectual property would file a series of patents for its own use.
