...protocol to provide similar peer-to-peer indexing. A user of OpenNap first employs any of a number of client programs (like Napster's MusicShare) to open up a hard drive for outside access; a list of contents are then uploaded to the OpenNap server, which does nothing but publish a directory of connected clients and offer a means of searching them.

For example in a recent case the Supreme Court unanimously upheld the right of Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt to publish a parody claiming that the Rev.
