[2014-9-06. : 12:16 am] payne -- JackJack shouted: I'm not sure what it is in NZ. The best way is to just to either only do legal torrenting, buy what you want, or move to a country where all torrenting is legal. I believe the case in Quebec is that as long as you're not making any money off the free stuff you download or even share, you are fine[2014-9-06. : 12:12 am] Jack -- Or maybe they just throttle your service, idk. I know most ISPs shape your bandwidth, so gaming and streaming will get priority and torrents get lowest priority.[2014-9-06. : 12:12 am] jjf28 -- unless they have a low upload-speed model and you're costing them money[2014-9-06. : 12:12 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I'm not really sure. I got an email like that when I was pirating an SC ISO because I lost my disk. The email didn't say anything about downloading it, the problem it had was I was "distributing" it since it was a torrent [2014-9-06. : 12:11 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I think they just sit and track who is on the peer lists on torrents or something[2014-9-06. : 12:10 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- They're not allowed to monitor your usage (unless you get a shitty provider that slips that in to the terms), so usually it's "third parties" who monitor you ...[2014-9-06. : 12:10 am] Jack -- I'm not sure what it is in NZ. The best way is to just to either only do legal torrenting, buy what you want, or move to a country where all torrenting is legal.[2014-9-06. : 12:09 am] Jack -- I think the USA has a 6 strikes policy where if you get caught 6 times they'll terminate your service.[2014-9-06. : 12:08 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- it's usually just like "X told us you were distributing Y, pls stop"[2014-9-06. : 12:08 am] Jack -- Ah my bad, adblock plus has "acceptable ads" which you can disable. In fact a quick google suggests to me that adblock plus might be better now in terms of privacy.[2014-9-06. : 12:07 am] payne -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: payne I got an email that said, "Hey, don't do that again," and that was it/ out of curiousity, would you be willing to transfer it to my email? [2014-9-06. : 12:07 am] payne -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: payne I got an email that said, "Hey, don't do that again," and that was it/ haha, who was sending it?[2014-9-06. : 12:06 am] payne -- http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/9632254/House_of_Cards_%282013%29_-_S02_Season_2_Complete_-_WEBRip.x264-2HD. the "ANONYMOUS DOWNLOAD" link is just to the right of the "GET TORRETN"[2014-9-06. : 12:06 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Like what? I have adblock plus and I don't see ads anywhere [2014-9-06. : 12:06 am] Dem0n -- paynepayne shouted: Dem0n how did you get caught, and what happened? also, you live in the States? I got an email that said, "Hey, don't do that again," and that was it/[2014-9-06. : 12:06 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- what's the difference between adblock and adblock plus?[2014-9-06. : 12:05 am] Jack -- There are a few more but Ghostery and Ad Block tend to block pretty much everything.[2014-9-06. : 12:05 am] Jack -- If you're using chrome, you should install Ghostery, Ad Block (not Ad block plus), Collusion if you like, and HTTPS-Everywhere.[2014-9-06. : 12:02 am] payne -- it wants me to download a .exe <- I generally consider that pretty suspicious[2014-9-06. : 12:02 am] payne -- anyways, once again, what is that "ANONYMOUS DOWNLOAD" link, then? I always used "GET THIS TORRETN"[2014-9-06. : 12:00 am] payne -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: I've downloaded Game of Thrones, other TV shows, and a bunch of movies, and the only one I ever got caught with was The Avengers, and that was because I downloaded it the same day it came out on DVD. how did you get caught, and what happened? also, you live in the States?[2014-9-05. : 11:59 pm] payne -- jjf28jjf28 shouted: payne they may just want to take their toys out to play http://youtu.be/pMas0tWc0sg that's ridiculous indeed[2014-9-05. : 11:55 pm] Dem0n -- I've downloaded Game of Thrones, other TV shows, and a bunch of movies, and the only one I ever got caught with was The Avengers, and that was because I downloaded it the same day it came out on DVD.[2014-9-05. : 11:54 pm] payne -- http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/9632254/House_of_Cards_%282013%29_-_S02_Season_2_Complete_-_WEBRip.x264-2HD. I never used the "ANONYMOUS DOWNLOAD" links... are they secure, just by themselves?[2014-9-05. : 11:54 pm] Dem0n -- Honestly, you don't need all that. Unless you're downloading the newest blockbuster hits the same day they come out on DVD, it's very unlikely that they're going to be tracked[2014-9-05. : 11:54 pm] payne -- and why do you say they are "slow" ? they slow down the speed of the downloading?[2014-9-05. : 11:51 pm] Jack -- Just make sure that you use an anonymous VPN which doesn't store logs and you should be oke.[2014-9-05. : 11:51 pm] payne -- I rarely torrent... and I'm leaving in a few days, so I won't torrent for a while neither.[2014-9-05. : 11:47 pm] Jack -- He's bought his own political party though in NZ, the Internet Party. Then it combined with the Mana party, now being called the Internet-Mana Party.[2014-9-05. : 11:46 pm] jjf28 -- paynepayne shouted: why would the FBI care about a Quebecer using Demonoid, though? What could they even do to your beloved payne? they may just want to take their toys out to play http://youtu.be/pMas0tWc0sg[2014-9-05. : 11:46 pm] Jack -- Tor is too slow and you shouldn't waste it on torrenting. For VPNs, you'll want to pay for one as the free ones tend to be bad, unless you hardly ever torrent. You need to google harder: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=how+do+I+use+a+VPN%3F[2014-9-05. : 11:43 pm] Jack -- In the end if the NSA wants to find you they will, though. But in terms of generally staying off the radar, a VPN will probably be enough.[2014-9-05. : 11:39 pm] payne -- JackJack shouted: Yeah, but if you're downloading something popular and it's not in a private tracker the chances of it being monitored are extremely high. You're better off using some method of making yourself anonymous, rather than worrying about whether the torrent is monitored or not. Although ideally you'd probably want to use a private tracker anyway. Private trackers won't be 100% un-monitored either but they'll generally be more likely to be "safe". how to make oneself anonymous?[2014-9-05. : 11:38 pm] payne -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: Yes, as long as you make sure the torrent you're about to download isn't being tracked. You can usually tell by what the people say in the comments. how could I personally learn how to know if it was tracked or not?[2014-9-05. : 11:34 pm] Jack -- Yeah, but if you're downloading something popular and it's not in a private tracker the chances of it being monitored are extremely high. You're better off using some method of making yourself anonymous, rather than worrying about whether the torrent is monitored or not. Although ideally you'd probably want to use a private tracker anyway. Private trackers won't be 100% un-monitored either but they'll generally be more likely to be "safe".[2014-9-05. : 11:33 pm] Dem0n -- Obviously it's not that black and white. But the only way you'll know if a torrent is being tracked is if other people tell you.[2014-9-05. : 11:31 pm] Dem0n -- Yes, as long as you make sure the torrent you're about to download isn't being tracked. You can usually tell by what the people say in the comments.[2014-9-05. : 11:30 pm] payne -- why would the FBI care about a Quebecer using Demonoid, though? What could they even do to your beloved payne? [2014-9-05. : 11:23 pm] payne -- RoyRoy shouted: Was Demonoid the one that got taken down and brought back up as an FBI front to catch pirates? lol, where'd you get that from?[2014-9-05. : 10:21 pm] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Oh, the ones with parentheses in that were the ones that would be true in what "if(b<b)" was supposed to be checking for .. |
