Package: amule Version: 2.2.1-1 Severity: normal Hello,
thank you for all your work like packaging this free software, which unfortunately has no gui-tweak to turn the ip2country-feature on and *off* as far as I see. It seems to be a compiletime option only and certainly those feeling themselves as humans could compile it themselves, but as Debian has political guidelines (on foundation day, Ian might have had an e.g. irish ID, Deborah might "be" whatever, but Debian doesn't have an irish-whatever double-flag, but http://www.debian.org/social_contract instead). Certainly Geoip might be usefull for secret services and military purposes, for future "ethnical" cleansings of IT-Areas or stuff (don't let those download or whatever), but these kids in the net screaming how nicely colourful these flags are and that they feel soo happy to see their country flags, die in the wars worldwide and I don't particularly want to support this by silence. I think/ guess, the ip-areas are given away by organizations or companies (like global providers or whoever is sending staff there) after discussing it on meetings and I don't know and don't care whether there are ip-addresses available for e.g. Palestine or Kurdistan - this might offend others then anyway and is not desirable IMHO, but nationalizating Users (this is not to point out where they grew up and which climate there was then, but which army they pay taxes and blood for) is "geistige Mobilmachung"-moral war preparation and I am fed up with this in germany already and don't want it here. This is why this report is done - no need to reply. Thanks for listening.
