Um, what's an FBI honeypot?

Take a look at this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honeypot_%28computing%29

Basically it is a trap that a third party will set. They will make a node/user/whatever look like a valid user, but they will use it to gain insight and catch people. They can also attempt to take down the network "from the inside"

Edit:
OMG 1 second ninja'd!

Hm, when I start coding the protocol, then I'll have to add bunches of security.

If you want to add security, be sure to add ALL OF IT. I guess you have to be an expert on security.

I finally cleared my sig after 4 years you're happy now?

I don't think that legally, they can do anything about what you say here. There's the Freedom of Speech thing, right? :D
