The fucks at charter got me too, I got an email from them wanting to settle for $30 per song and if I didn't settle I could lose my internet access or possibly have to pay 150K per song
Lmao, fuck charter. I've paid these bastards thousands of dollars over the years and they rat me out over this.

Get a linux distro and crack a neighbors wifi and steal shit on their account. Thats what I do, though I do wonder if this BBQ place has ever gotten letters to 'cease and desist' downloading. Been going on for almost two years now.

That is actually a crime as well and if that place gets investigated you could be in even more hot water.
Technically I think it is a crime every time a cell phone auto-connects to even an unprotected wifi. If you aren't intended to have access by the owner what you're doing to that business is also stealing.
I am for free sharing of information, but anyone who does not also apply some standard of personal ethics is an asshole IMO. Plus when I stole lots of media I was constantly getting malware and having hard drives corrupt. It's like techno-karma.
I would like to see the whole empire of art being co-opted into advertising for the benefit of a few be taken down, but the average pirate just seems to be a cheapskate who wants to enjoy the amusements of popular culture without paying the admission price.

In the 5 years I've had a mac I've never had to do more than clear my safari cookies. And I play cracked valve games on my mac. Enjoy your microsoft POS.

You should get on a private tracker. I've never had any problems there. Quote:

Ever wonder why music is lacking? Musicians are working other jobs instead of writing and producing music because people keep stealing their shit.
You can't pirate live music. That's why most bands tour a shit load now.

enjoy Halflife and Portal.
I got nothing against mac users, the cutting edge of technology can be a dangerous place I understand some people prefer ease of use over sheer volume of potential features and customization, but in my position macs are out of my price range. I more have a collection of components that I switch out. I would totally be open to messing around with Apple components but I'd always rather just upgrade my PC situation if I have extra funds in the tech budget

i have in the past, but its worthless. even if you block someones IP they can still see your IP in the swarm. they just can't download from you

that may be true in court cases, but not when it comes to people sending complants to you ISP. and comcast doesnt need proof to throttle your bandwidth with the 6-strikes thing. all they need is enough complaints
lots of people have gotten letters even though their upload is set to 0

Between Peerblock and not uploading I've never gotten a notice across a couple different ISPs. Maybe I've just been lucky...

What complaints? I don't think I've ever seen Comcast offered in my neck of the woods. Do like regular users complain against you or something?

i was too for like 6 years i honestly dont see why they just started tagging me now considering how much media ive torrented.
ive been looking into PIA. probably gonna try their 4$ trial. if the speed is tolerable it will be worth the 35$ a year or whatever the full price is

companies that own the digital content set themselves up in the torrent swarm, or pay private companies to, and send out letters to ISPs notifying them of who it sees in there.
it seems like most ISP's are good about ignoring them. comcast is the only one that will actually hijack your browser and throttle your bandwidth it seems

I've been downloading music since the late 90's and I love it although nothing is as good as Napster used to be. I did buy all of my music before I could download , but that was in the past, we're in the future now where you can get almost any song with a couple clicks. Why would I get in my car to drive across town to buy a CD when I could just download it for free. When I get the CD home I have to turn it into an mp3 anyways so I can put it on my mp3 player. Buying music is obsolete and record stores are obsolete. By torrenting I'm just cutting out all the middle men.
Even though I download the artists still get my money. If they're are good I will go to their concerts and/or buy their merchandise. Another plus is that if you don't buy their albums you are forcing them to tour and you can go to more concerts.
