How do you protect your right to piracy?
rosenshyne:
Looks like I need to learn a new skill.
kiki:
Peer Guardian is also your friend.
J. M. Pescado:
"Peer Guardian" is a useless waste of space. Just don't sit around seeding things for months. :P
Lonesome Dove:
How do you change your IP? The only way I know is to use Tor and from what I understand that's frowned upon because it hogs the available resources. Correct me if I'm wrong. Like you wouldn't.
I normally only torrent pretty obscure stuff, ebooks and old music, stuff like that. But I torrented Sims 3 because I wanted to see if it was the POS people are saying it is before I plunked down cash for it. I seeded for a while but got nervous and shut it off. I hate being a leech but I can't afford to pay for privacy service. I do continue to seed the other torrents I've downloaded as I doubt they'll draw any interest from the powers that be. Maybe I'm wrong there, too.
One other question: The notice rosenshyne got says she can reactivate her connection once she's removed the M&G file from her computer. How can they tell whether she did or not, unless she resumed that specific torrent? Is Big Brother that big?

I use satellite internet provided by Hughenet. Costs more but they don't care what I look at or download as long as the bill is paid every month. I'm not financially well off but I budget for it because it's a priority. Pay for better service get more free stuff.
Satellite internet is crap. Get a real ISP.
