JUST RECEIVED THIS AFTER TORRENTING

stop seeding you dumbo

you live in a nonfree country. 20-30 years no parole.

>land of the free
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

That's strike one, strike three they slow down your bandwidth, strike four they shut down your Internet connection. No jail time, just no Internet.

thank you anon, now I can sleep again. Also tips to not get detected when torrenting?

>>60893815
This. If you don’t seed then you’re not spreading their content, meaning they got nothing on you.

does Charter do this? i havent got any emails yet. i dont use vpn because nobody has recommended a speedy free one

>>60893790
>2017
>Not in /ptg/
>Not using a seedbox
>Not downloading the file using a encrypted ftp connection.
Your fault.

>>60893981
It's rare when this happens. I just hope for the best when it come to torrenting, I would use a VPN but I've been torrenting for 10+ years and I have got 3 copyright infringement emails in the past 10ish years. If you want to spend money on a VPN, then sure but again it's rare for a cin email to come in.

Best of luck anon.

All ISPs will do this to cover their own asses, the only reason OP got sent one is because he downloaded a torrent that had a snitch in the peerlist. Avoid popular torrents on popular public trackers and you won't get your IP reported to your ISP and the copyright trolls won't be able to take your ass to court

>>60894010
I bet 99% of all torrenting VPNs are paid for, I haven't found a free one yet.

>>60893981
get a seedbox for like 12 bucks a month and never worry about this shit again

Just ignore it lol. The jewish-owned film industry forces them to send out notices, they'll do nothing because you're a paying customer.

>not mounting your remote volume with hardened sshfs and streaming directly over a chacha-poly1305 cipher

It's movies and porn that is most common for copyright fuckers, so don't download them unless you need to.

I was downloading season 7 and 8 of anthony bourdains parts unknown, literally was sent the email like 20 min after I started downloading

There you go. Use streaming services, I like those. Idk if they send out copyright infringement emails or not.

VPNs aren't terribly trustworthy in an absolute sense. But compared to Comcast they're quite trustworthy.

>>60893981
stop using utorrent it's literally a botnet, qbittorrent is a good alternative
enabled forced encryption and anonymous mode
don't download torrents with 16000 seeds 5 minutes after upload

>>60894212
You can censor them out with your favourite image manipulator.

1. Unless they literally have their spyware Comcast browser shit installed on your computer they cannot prove it was you or someone who stole your network, or even gained remote control of your computer, which has and does happen.
2. They send these out because *they* do not want to be the target of a lawsuit from the RIAA or MPAA, not because they actually give a fuck.
3. They will sometimes send out like 5 of these at once through a proxy which is actually the record label/studio, even if they are 1 letter for each song from a same album. Even more horriying, they will browser hijack you (because they are your ISP they think you can't do shit about it) and will threaten to cut off your service and force you to login to prove you own the account and THEN force you to accept that you understand, as if you are admitting you are guilty. Again, their intent is to scare you because they don't really want to engage a lawsuit against you unless they really have mountains of dirt on you and want to make a example of you.

>Also tips to not get detected when torrenting?
You can't, that's how torrent works

IIRC copyright bots just join the torrent swarm and write down IPs of everyone in it, and then send automatic abuse emails to the IP owner

VPNs can help but it just depends on how trustworthy they are in the first place because they will receive those abuse emails directed to you. So they will either ignore them if they can, or will just rat you out because they don't want trouble.

Stop living in shit countries

>>60893981
Use a shitbox (old computer/device, raspπ/pocket computer, etc.) and connect it to an open AP or one that you have access to but no actual association/ownership with (so using your school's network where you sign in is a no go) and download/seed from it, and then ftp/ssh/whatever into it through some form of encryption (or just over LAN if possible) and download files off of it. There are commercial services that do this (seedboxes) but they a. cost money and b. are potentially untrustworthy.

>>60893790
Ignore shit and get back to downloading.

I see those emails for months

Sorry, 4chan. You can't disown a meme you invented to Reddit just because it got stale.

Is this bait?

>>60893790
If you've stolen a copyrighted file then you can just upload it to them, and you'll be covered.

>>60893790
Get a cheap server out of the US. Download your shit there. SCP or rsync as needed.
Alternatively, set up your torrent client to use a VPN. If you know what you're doing, docker makes that very easy.

>these first world problems

You know, I might live in a shithole but I can pirate everything peacefully.

You bois living in the first world should go outside, work and pay for the stuff your economy provides.

Any Canadians know our copyright laws? I know we get emails from ISPs too, but can they charge us for just downloading torrents?

They do, I got one for downloading Old World Blues back when it was newish. Same goes for Northland (if anyone's stuck with them).

They won't, if the community finds out their business is ruined. They just ignore them. They can't be held responsible anyway

>>60893790
what did you download? i'm constantly seeding shit without a VPN and i have never gotten a notice.
