<p>A multi-level and/or demand based method and apparatus for interdicting unauthorized copying in a decentralized network are described. In their preferred embodiments, the method and apparatus start out by performing search result manipulation to interdict unauthorized copying of protected files. If a trigger event is detected in network communications, however, such as a threshold number of requests being exceeded for a protected file by a network node, then the method floods that node with decoys of the protected file to enhance interdiction efforts.</p> |
