              If you have a VPN then how can they tie the exit IP to your vanilla one? Either it isn't working or your client is leaky.

        Honestly it’s just downloading via torrenting, you could do the same thing from an online file sharing site and they’d never know

        Some of this old stuff is even free from the publisher, how is it a copy right violation when it’s literally free in the first place? You couldn’t even pay for it if you wanted to

        according to the wording At&t didn't rat you out, instead they claim they were informed by a 3rd party... Does that mean the people providing those torrents are the same people making the claim to At&t? Otherwise how would they know? It's either that or At&t are giving their customers' privative information to 3rd party's. I think there might be a case for a lawsuit here.

          ips dling the torrent are as easily visible to copyright holders as everyone else. it's why you use tor or vpn or remote seedbox. vpn is more useful to me and worth the few $/mo

          Anonymous

          public torrents are open to everyone and you expose your IP to everyone else by nature of how torrents work and they can figure out your ISP from your IP who knows which customer of theirs the IP belongs to.

          So essentially third party snitching services contracted by the IP holders do the digital equivalent of the FBI showing up and writing down the license plates of everyone at the wedding in the beginning of the Godfather and then send it to your ISP, who then send you a letter to tell you to knock it off. You can thwart this by downloading your kinos through direct downloads, which IP holders have no way of monitoring, or using a VPN/seedbox with a provider who delete their IP logs and throw any crybaby copyright letters in the trash. (expect this loophole to end one day, especially because pedos use it to download cp)

            You can go on “Iknowwhatyoudownload”and see what other people downloaded using the same VPN “country” server. It’s almost always movies/porn but if you use Los Angeles and look at that attached IP on that site, someone using the same IP downloaded CP, and though it’s correctly labeled as illegal, they still show the torrent name. Disturbing

          No, the companies that own the rights to the movies torrent the movies as well. They can see all the IPs of the people they're leeching from. So they compile a list of IP addresses of people who obviously have the file. Then they complain to the ISP and say that these people who are their customers are stealing their shit. The ISP is not spying on you. The media companies are monitoring you as you torrent shit, then whining to your ISP. Your ISP has no choice but to warn you and eventually ban you from their service to avoid the media company from suing the frick out of them for continuing to allow you to steal their shit

          You didn't think your torrents were somehow anonymous did you? That connecting to hundreds/thousands of people around the world would go unnoticed?

          They have to send you a nag letter when prompted to by the copyright holder, but it doesn't actually do anything. The copyright holder is the one who would have to try and follow up with a lawsuit if they wanted to, but the thing about US piracy laws is that they're aimed at distributors. You're technically distributing while torrenting, but if you just direct download it instead, they can't do anything but nag you. It's the same as how you aren't going to be sued or arrested for going to a theater that's playing pirated media. If you just stream it you won't even get a letter. It may get messier when the isp and the copyright holder are the same but the vast majority of those letters are simply scare tactics against the uninformed

          Realistically, they dont. Most ISPs send you these things because they have to because of laws. But your business is more important to them than angry letters. They won't do shit unless it becomes a real problem and they get threatened with serious lawsuits. This is basically their way of saying "stop torrenting for a few weeks until the heat dies down".

    Only time I ever got a letter from my ISP for being naughty in the last 13 years was because my stupid VPN client updated itself without telling me and failed to turn back on and I downloaded FF7:Reslop. Apparently Squeenix are ultrajews that get supreme butthurt when you don't pay them much like Nintendo. I had never even heard of people getting letters for video games (other than Nintendo), just movies and music.

    I have never used a VPN because I have nothing to hide. It's blatantly not an intellectual property issue, simply removing the physical component of a product doesn't make it 'intellectual' property. I have committed no plagiarism or illicit commerce, no profit was made by anyone as I even blocked ads on the torrent site. Like publishers themselves, I've merely cut out the physical middleman by downloading a free dvd instead of getting one, or a thousand out of the DUMP. Think of it as a continuing manifestation of all that waste, missed opportunity, and slop mongery which has only begun.

    I don't live in Afghanistan so my ISP will concur or lose a customer, period.

      Assuming the hotel has cameras and they log when the torrenting starts they can probably put two and two together and figure out its you if they really give a shit. If you're torrenting every night and start doing it once you show up for your shift, its pretty obvious

      They would probably complain to the hotel and tell them to start using some kind of firewall that blocks torrenting. Actually suing and/or pressing criminal charges against random people went out of vogue in napster days with horror stories of grandmas getting arrested because their grandchildren were torrenting metallica albums or whatever the frick so they relented knowing their israelite gooses would be cooked if they kept pushing people too hard over the issue. Nowadays businesses just mostly comply with each others wishes and if a copyright holder cries they just handle it through private channels by sending you warnings and restricting your internet or whatever if you do it too much.

      CP would be a whole other issue. Police can subpoena the ISP and the hotel for the information they want and there would be a more thorough investigation of who was using the internet when.

        I don’t know whether that strategy would work
        but ISPs do not give a frick and just want your money, yes in burgerland they hold a lot of oligopoly sourced power, but at the end of the day they want your money
        however their oligopoly power really just allows them to be a shitty service (to increase their profit margin) so long as the few other ISPs are also
        shut
        Enforcing whatever bullshit copyright holders want makes them no money, and in fact only risks them losing money either via forcefully dropping a customer or by being sued, and thus ISPs only reluctantly enforce, if ever
        you leaving deprives Mr. shekelstein of your burger bucks, and gives mr shekelstein nothing in control

    1. Get a better ISP. When I get caught with Spectrum, they temporarily limit my connection until I click an annoying acknowledgement that I've done a very bad thing and they restore my service to normal. They're legally required to do this, so they do the bare minimum and don't really care beyond this as they want my money.

    2. Use a vpn. I use surfshark. As long as you have it on you'll never see a notice. I recommend you rotate locations every few days though as continuous pirating on one connection will eventually get it slowed down.

    3. Keep in mind who complains. In my experience? It's mostly Paramount, Warner Bros. and the parent company of NBC. Only studios I've ever gotten notices from. I don't think it's a coincidence these are studios hurting financially. The more recent the file is, the more likely it is to get a ding. Also sadly the more seeders it has. They want to nail as many people at once as possible. I have to date never gotten one of these over anime, porn, or anything over a decade old.

      Yeah the parent company of Paramount which is Viacom has always went overboard about enforcing their copyright.

    You could use the internet to be a child sex predator and they would not send these notifications. Remember how much power israelites have over the world. The copyright system was not meant to cut people out of service, jail people, or let them garnish your income indefinitely but that’s what they’re doing.

    THEY have media control. Behind closed doors they make up all the financial laws.

      They are starting to do this shit, execs probably thought it was impossible to to catch them until someone explained to them how the internet worked and how they could threaten the ISP instead of regular people and now this is becoming more and more popular. I expect USA and then UK will fall first in the following 10 years, then it's either Europe or it stops there for 10 more.

      there are literally 0 benefits of a VPN for any of the reasons youtubers shill them, they're either completely irrelevant or straight up don't work ('watch UK netflix!' like it doesn't immediately realize you're using a vpn and block you)
      VPNs are worth the $3 a month to keep your ISP from throttling you or sending threatening letters

    why do you torrent in the U.S?

    Some of those movies you can get for dirt cheap, even on physical.

    In South America we don't get shit and that's why we torrent, and nobody gives a shit

    Lmao just direct download the TV shows and movies from bflix it's not that hard, the issue is the fact that when you torrent everyone can see your ip and your open ports. In my life of 35 years I downloaded 15 tbs of games, movies and TV shows. Never received a letter (west yurop, frogland)

      In the U.S. they will throttle your connection and make you click on a browser redirected C&D notice. At worst they sue you for stealing entertainment.

      Fellow frog here. I guess it's just a France thing because according to our law, what is illegal is seeding, not really downloading (exception copie privée).
      Which is why you don't really get busted was a downloader for direct downloads as you would for P2P, but the sites get shut down every now and then.
      That + we actually pay a copyright tax on hard drives.

          For a 122€ HDD, there's probably 20€ that are for the "taxe copie privée".
          The state get's around 300 millions a year from this tax that they redistribute to the industry. So in a sense, you pay for those films.

              eh, €20 every time you buy a hard drive (that's not every year), if you can get movies on it and don't get busted like in the US, it seems like fair game.

        you dont get busted because there's no way to enforce it to downloaders. procedure is to DMCA the host of the copywritten material to prevent sharing.

    Literally just buy a VPN that doesn't keep logs, and set qbittorrent to only run through that VPN's network in Advanced settings. It's a pretty obvious setting. If VPN also has Internet kill switch use that. Downloaded a few hundred GB this year and it still shows 0 hits on iknowwhatyoudownload.
