Which countries does still allow bittorrent trackers?

[cvb]

Simple question, I know Sweden still allow it, but I have some doubts about if it still be legal after the TPB case.
So, is a country like Luxemborg torrent friendly (server.lu servers or?)?

Teoreticly speaking all country's are against bittorrenting. I'm not talking about 3rd world country's where they don't have electricity they have other priority's .
For example where I leave ( Romania ) is pretty much okay for you to use is, not that ISP incurages you to use but they don't have anything against.

[flashback3r]

Trackers are legal everywhere? But to download copyrighted material is illegal everywhere?

India :ermm:

[starfly3r]

whats the source for this?
Did u read it anywhere?
I said india because in india there are currently very few Internet laws and that too they are no severe punishments (like some money)

[Swift]

it's true that third world country's haven't got such a strict policy against torrenting

[redMonster]

I have not heard any country which bans bittorrent trackers. Trackers can be used for constructive purposes as well. I know lots of people who download every popular linux ISO out there every month. How can anyone disallow this?

[RedRansom]

look like cvp looking for a server provider which allow torrenting :P
afaik leaseweb is number 1 cuz they dont care what you are doing and supporting great.
server.lu ? if i am not wrong when i looking for a seedbox,i saw there was a caution at server.lu about we dont allow torrenting,pR0n and baggy ftp trafic...
some ppl just was saying Malaysia and some tracker didnt back up regularly and when their server shut down,return to 2 months old back up :yup:

Third world country still allow it.. but speed sucks.. try iraq, iran, afganistan...

... and if they catch you with porn or anything considered anti-islamic you might get stoned to death. how liberal.

afaik leaseweb is number 1 cuz they dont care what you are doing and supporting great.

so Oink and aradi tracker were just unlucky then.

You can host anywhere you like, but if you get too well known, and you have pre-release stuff on the tracker, they will get you sooner rather than later.

that is why Oink went down, it was not so much the fact they had a ton of music, it was because uploaders were uploading non scene pre-release stuff on there, so they were the first place to get it.

But i would not touch leaseweb at all, i also would not go to Malaysia either, saying as though they kicked most out last year, even though i think they are relaxing on that a bit, its still risky.

I know a popular torrent site, torrent.to which everybody knows here, it does fine with root eSolutions aka server.lu

Special negotiations? I don't know. But obviously they can't be strictly against it.

[RedRansom]

well when a private or public tracker so populer and have nearly 4k seeder on files which on private tracker and some singers already registered for see what was turning around.Of course it will shut down cuz all media talking about its and i am sure leaseweb didnt want to shut down servers cuz they dont care what you are doing on servers and they wont monitor your traffic or server but when interpol,IFPI,BPI and other organizations in an investigation codenamed Operation Ark Royal join the game and put pressure on illegal file sharing to leaseweb ofc will shut down the servers cuz they dont want to have headache in return and if leaseweb still would host this tracker it will sentence as well but now as we can see they are still alive..

well, If i am not wrong TPB was saying something about a island(autonomous) which near of Britain and afaik they get some donate for this island i dont know the whole history and what happened but i am really appreciate they work cuz there is a page about what complaint they but they are all cool and
No action (except ridiculing the senders) has been taken by us because of these. :-)
Nice graphs for the law firms who don't get the hint above:
(we used to have a nice graph here, but it's simpler to just say: 0 torrents has been removed, and 0 torrents will ever be removed.)
and think about it if torrent world drive crazy and rent a island for servers hosting lol. what riaa,interpol will do, start 3rd World War and occupy the island?lol.


i add some sources for who dont know about oink...
The site was an invitation-only (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invitation_system) BitTorrent (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent_%28protocol%29) community, with a membership of around 180,000 members and 200,000 torrents at the time of closure.[4] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oink%27s_Pink_Palace#cite_note-ifpi-3)[5] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oink%27s_Pink_Palace#cite_note-4)

that sea island then off the British coast.

I even looked into going there, but it was very expensive, just as well i didnt lol

[rockaa]

You need to split bittorrenting into two parts. Legal and illegal torrenting.
Legal would be allowed everywhere, where illegal torrenting is pushined in every country that I know of, if you get caught ofcourse. And I mean pushined by a fine or something similiar, I don't know the exact pushiment for every single country.

LMAO!! Never thought of it that way!
:D

[cvb]

Well, let's just say hotlinking to illegal material.

[Unstable1]

Downloading is still completely legal here in Switzerland. It's uploading (seeding) that's the crime punishable by up to 1 year in prison. I use a seedbox (in another country) for all my torrenting.
