no its not, and it probably never will be!

i have seen so many threads with the topic;

is usenet safe?
is torrenting safe?
is mule-edonkey thing safe?
anonymous irc..
secure ftp downloading.

la de da..hundreds of others too.


right:it never has been or ever will be 100% secure.NOT EVER.

with any of the above you will always leave a trace of some sort, its just a fact because whatever kind of electronic connection you make to anything it leaves a trace. if its a phonecall, paypal payment, bittorrent connection it always does.

the only saving grace the way i see it, is in the numbers.
just like not paying car insurance, driving when disqualified, not paying a tv licence or downloading there are so many people doing it they cant go after everyone.

thats why they go for scene servers, torrent sites or as of late usenet providers. you go for the drug kingpin not the 10 million doing blow @ the weekend.

its never secure, get over it.

rant over.

7 proxies beg to differ.

7 proxies? I don't know what you are thinking but 7 proxy,means your connection bouncing over 7 different servers around world, if you include the routing servers too number increases dramatically. This means 6-10 times more digital trace left behind(depending of locations of your proxy servers)

captive is right, nothing can save hide your ass %100, in fact no such thing as %100 in this world, there is a 0.00(...)01 chance that you might actually die before finishing reading this post. This is the very thing makes this world so beautiful...

but this is no reason to not use peerblock, a proxy/vpn and a basic firewall

This is not how it works. The last proxy only has the information of the previous proxy. That proxy only has the information of the proxy before it. Etc. This means that you will need to track ALL of the proxies, instead of just one. You are not 7 times as insecure, but 7 times as secure.

ok, mistake understood. By the way pretty hilarious picture :D

Read again, I said nothing about being less secure, I said way more digital trace.

there's a huge difference between asking for a safe way to download files and asking for the safest way to download files.
