lmao fucking cucks

Your isp can share your info, and you get a letter with your court date. That's how it goes down. Fine is upwards of $5k.

Fucking sucks.

What when is this?

What?

>>62018122
YOU ARE RETARDED

>>62018122
What in the shit did you do?

>>62018122
lmao

Amerifats are this cucked that even their ISPs willingly give out their personal information to a third party just to enforce their """DMCA"""

>>62018122
Who is your ISP OP?

>>62018122
kek, received something similar from my isp which is virgin media, told me im fucked as that was my third and last letter because apparently someone pirated some shitty movie and they try to enforce dmca rules here

americans will try to fight this but it is true

the government is the only entity that can protect the rights of the people. your ar-15 is a placebo in the grander scheme.

>>62018484
wtf has that got to do with this? go milk your goats.

>>62018122
nothing will happen OP it's most likely a scam anyhow, I've gotten like 30 cease and desist letters and they've never done shit

>>62020551
I am wondering though, can't you just deny that the letters ever arrived at your doorstep?

>>62020577
well in American Law an IP address != a person so they have no legal basis to do anything they are just trying to scare you into paying them

>>62020609
I see, what about the law in some retarded EU countries (like Germany for example). There is many cases there where people get such letters and end up paying 500-1000 Euros to some lawyers who claim to bring this shit to court if you don't cough up the shekels.

>>62020624
I heard torrenting will be banned in Saudi Arabia.

>>62020629
Eurofags don't have rights, especially Germany since they lost two world wars. Their Governments are actually able to pass stupid shit that is anti-consumer and pro-corporation without much of a problem. In the US the same shit happens but our Government is so unable to do anything that we're pretty much always a step ahead.

>>62020667
Turkey is (somehow) a NATO member, dumdum. Held to a lot more international scrutiny.
Riyadh is basically /pol/'s dream city though, aside from the Muslims.

>>62020258
>get out of court
>get shot

>>62020667
Well, you have worse things to worry about in turkey I guess.

>>62020772
Its quite comfy currently, Erdogan is busy cracking down on Gulen spawns, he doesn't have the time to do some bullshit.

Not all muzzie countries are bad, though the ones that refugees come from usually are.

Government is the only entity that recognizes intellectual property. It's not a capitalist idea, it's a statist one. In fact, the very notion of intellectual property conflicts with capitalist private property, as It means you don't own your own property.

Also your [pic related] is retarded because most of those are either companies that haven't done anything, government enforced or protected monopolies, and a bank which was bailed out by the state.
Almost like that foot is the government... because it is.

>>62018520
They said they wanna "settle" for $300.

>>62019628
I accidently a torrent.

>>62019842
No shit! I'm just here as a tourist and I'm stunned. I'm from Romania originally and this shit never happens there. We're a socialist shithole and somehow our internet is more free than here.

>>62020022
Comcast

>>62020551
This is from a private party though. They're trolls with lawsuits. I don't know how shit works here in the US. Back home nobody hives half a fuck

>>62020643
Back in Canada I couldn't even load metadata.


Does anybody know if comcast is gonna be a Jew about this and how much i can wait before i have to pay anything.

I'm a fucking tourist here and my folks are the ones who're gonna end up paying for my stupidity. I don't wanna burden them.

>>62019388
YES! YES I AM!
I don't know what the fuck goes on in the US.
I was a clever cunt before I came to visit here and started drinking the tap water!

>>62018122
Also, to be more specific it was an email. Not a paper letter.

>>62020629
Actually here in germany they cant do anything about piracy unless you admit personally you did it
Dont admit and they cant do anything about it regardless of how obvious it is that you pirated the shit
Apart from that its extremely rare to get fuxked for piracy here

>>62020258

>>62018122

I think it's only the movie and tv producers who do this

Killing the TV is for the better, anyways

>>62019842
Know the fun part?
Your shit third world countries comply with the US Government so you get those tasty tax breaks and aid.
You bet your ass if you get caught your isp will hand that shit over asap to stay on the USA's best side

Stopped reading after the first line

>>62022090
netflix's content is really limited. everytime i search a movie on it, its not there. Downloading is more comfy.

>>62018122
>using a web browser that gives your ip to every site you visit
op a fag

>>62022355
Yes. I know.
It was qbittorrent that got me shat on.

The reason I'm really retarded was because I went on their website to see what this shit was about. They asked for my IP and case number so I can check my "status".

And I, having drank the US tap water, was apparently temporarily retarded and wrote it down.

This means they have proof that I got the message.

This is the first time I ever encountered shit like this. In Romania I could download classified info about the illuminatti and the oil companies assassinating scientists and nobody would give half a shit. My ISP back home has a "we don't give a fuck about your investigations" rule and hasn't once cooperate with anyone.

Fuck knew this place was a dystopia.

>>62021489

If that's the case, then you're screwed if you actually gave them your IP.

Those guys don't actually care to take anyone to court. They just hope to scare people into paying whatever amount they're trying to extort.

They do it a lot with porn because no one wants to go to court where everyone is going to know you're being accused of torrenting some fetish shit.

>>62020693
>Their Governments are actually able to pass stupid shit that is anti-consumer and pro-corporation without much of a problem.
Are you having a laugh? Do you know literally anything about the EU? Consumer rights laws in the EU are the best in the world by a long shot. There are a lot of retarded EU laws but consumer rights laws are not an example of them.

>>62018122
lmao kys cuck.

>>62025019
this, EU consumer protection is god-tier
>buy literally anything
>decide i dont want it really
>send it back within 2 weeks
>company has to take it back and give me a full refund no questions asked

not to mention we don't let companies poison our food anywhere near as much as americans do

Re: Copyright Infringement

I have received your letter dated xx/xx/xxxx and after taking to my council, I have decided to tell you all to go fuck yourselves.

So go fuck yourselves.

Netflix is on the decline. Hook and eyepatch is the future.

>>62021489
>comcast
Did you actually read the email? last time comcast gave a shit about me torrenting it basically said: We won't do anything

>>62021806
oh please

>>62022656
in america if you download classified info about the illuminati and the oil companies assassinating scientists, nobody would also give half a shit.

but if you "steal" a movie, you gone get fucked.

>>62025063
>literally
>do even you english?

>>62025386
They just put you on the watchlist instead and silently wait to see if you do anything

>>62018122
Regarding what shit

>>62025728
This last.. how many months exactly?

>>62025292
They said they might do something, sometimes, maybe.Something like that.

It's not Comcast I'm concerned about it's these other fuckers: Copyrightenforcement.com
I just wanna know if Comcast is going to sell me out to them.

>>62025292
Giving them my IP just means they have proof that I read the Comcast email and that I know what they want from me.

They could use that in court to avoid "I didn't open the email" or "I didn't know about this" defenses.

They already had my email if they made Comcast send the email.

do vpns actually do anything though?
