Get banned off net for illegal downloads

It doesn't really matter whether people can avoid it or not.

If somebody has committed a crime, they can be punished by the law for committing the crime. If they then get on the net and do it again, they can be punished again. If they've been convicted of making some huge sum from the redistribution of copyright material for money, I'm sure they could be punished quite severely. But denying some access to the net is now like denying them access to the phone, or to the postal service.
 
Could you ask them which torrent site they downloaded it from? One would presume "they" are watching torrent sites, would be intersting to see which site's users they're after.

There was a big hoo haa haa (like to say that!) about RapidShare - lots of people use this instead of P2P stuff now - the whole site was threatened with closure in Germany.

Thats one link to the story - dont think its the most up to date - rapidshare is still running okay from what i can see...

You often get Rapdshare links that say "this file has been removed due to compaints about legality", where the owner has formally complained
 
So following the logic of this incredibly wise step can we ban folk off the planet for an illegal war?
 
:D:D:D:D:D
a LOT of people think that Axxo is Plod.

i'd like some sources for you wild claims here when have google been working for the Govt. and where have "people" other than nut bag conspirsy theorists been saying aXX is plod... considering that technically axxo has stopped releaseing torrents for a bit as they were fed up with getting spoofed.

the record industry even set up fake aXXo torrents to trap people and axxotorrents.com was taken down...

but don't let that stop you slandering one of the hardest working torrent uploaders up there with your half truths which simply banging in aXXo into google would have corrected...

If isp's could track the content of what goes through their lines, there'd be no child porn online.
Not only that, but they'd be responsible for any that they didn't report. That was part of their "common carrier" suit years ago when someone tried to sue Demon Internet for having dodgy shit on its newsserver.
 
They'll have done it because they were contacted by a copyright holder. Emails like this have been being sent out for years - a friend of mine got one in 2005, and it had no further consequences.
I had one sent out, a few years back. It was because I was sharing one particular movie out of 200-300.... bastards. Not even a compliment on the rest of my collection. :hmm:

you gone Smiley blind or wot?:p

as fer Google Inc...it's out there...I dids read in PRINT...not on teh Nets....and I didn't say NISH about work for the Govt.. I said...but obviously not accurately for your likings...THEY ARE WORKING ON SOMETHING FOR THE ISPs.:hmm:

hearsay is not slander.:D
 
Just use usenet with SSL encryption and your ISP is going to have a job on its hands.

It knows you're downloading a lot of stuff, but has no idea what it is your downloading. Should be able to find a few usenet providers with unlimited downloads and SSL for under a tenner a month. (Much quicker and safer than torrents anyway, IMO)

Google Inc are up to something to "help" ISPs identifying individuals...

That's already been done by ISPs:

i advise every one to watch steal this film parts 1 and two in fact i'll stick them up on my server for people to download

They're all over youtube and google videos no point in uploading them is there?

a LOT of people think that Axxo is Plod.

That's because it is, most AxxO releases are not even AxxO and are nuked by self respecting PT sites :D

If you are lucky enough to get in the Scene then you are laughing. You don't even have to share with plebs on torrents. Get it straight off the box. I am, well, I review scene releases a day or two before they're released onto private torrents. However I always delete them as piracy is wrong and funds terrorism :hmm:
 
SO it sounds like Azureus has it inbuilt - do you need to tweak your settings for it to work?

And surely the point ist that "ISP's can't peek into your downloads.", non?

yeah right i mean it's not as thoguht hey can see the call requests and where the packets are going to from your machine or coming back in from i mean that wold be pizxie magic and amazing man... oh wait they can...

encryption... my arse...

so much horse shit is tlaked about this subject.

simple matter of fact is that if you take basic precautions and dont advertise the fact you are using torrents to others by say haven't fuck loads of thred abotu the bloody things then you are basically annoyimous in the machine...

it's nigh on impossible for every user to be packet sniffed sufficently to tell if that randy race rachel does awrful anal or the latest and greatest bond moive...

What, you're going to be kicked off your ISP for using the wrong port? BitTorrent is a legitimate form of distribution used for plenty of legitimate things. If you can't tell what's in the packets, you can't do anything about it.
