:lol:

Are they that bad? Most people I've spoken to on the Internet made negative comments about them... not to mention the drama with P2P shaping and lying to their customers about it...

if you want to download a movie use hdbits which has an exclusive userbase..... unlike TL which has what 300,000 users if not more. if it's not on hdbits then go to usenet where you know you won't be monitored.

Or you could just not really give a fuck. But then again, you properly followed it with an idiotic suggestion, followed by a more obvious and unrelated one. This was an obvious post and a self-referencing statement.

I tried to go to Hdbits but they gave me some shit about not having an account.
Btw no offense but it doesn't seem idiocy is limited to TL users.

They are a big pile of suck, what's worse is many times they're the only game in town. I gave up on internet and cable for a period of time (before the whole antipiracy movement), so whereas Comcast is the evil ex, phone company DSL was the psycho infatuated girl you try to shake off immediately after getting into her nether zones.

Their shaping is protocol agnostic now. And only lasts 15 minutes at a time.

Plus, they have the same 3 strikes rule that all the other major ISPs.

Yes. As macky says below your post, I have two choices- the phone company (which I used to have, but got so pissed with them over a $20 discrepancy, and their switching me to M$ DSL without my consent that I canceled ALL of my services with them. And Concast which makes my skin crawl to have to send them a cent (it's a lot more than that, but if I looked at the bill, I would :sick: ) each month.

I was actually considering mooching/hacking my neighbors' wireless accounts before the moral police around here made me reconsider...

1. IP blocking software
2. Use smaller, private trackers instead of MEGA sites as much as possible
3. Avoid Big-Budget, Box-Office Bombs as they are DMCA notice magnets
4. Seed for 3-4 days, and cut off the torrent
5. Reduce the number of unnecessary seeding you are doing. Currently, I have over 100 files seeding- that's a lot more chances of getting a notice than say 10-15.

6. If you receive a notice, do nothing other than implement safe practices #'s 1-5 (above). Protesting the notice will only lead to your info being handed over to the MPAA/extortion-based lawyers involved

sounds kinda excessive
id suggest 2 variants:

I
- move to newsgroups
-TrueCrypt all hard disk drives+a system drive(password+key)

II
- get a decent VPN (not US based) that is secure and not expensive)
-TrueCrypt all hard disk drives+a system drive(password+key)


= authorities can go fuck themselves up their greedy asses.

Thank you both for the info, and trust me, stealing your neighbor's Wi-Fi wasn't really a good idea.

What about installing a key to instantly degauss your disks? :blink:

I don't think MBM or most people here can expect to have their homes raided to justify drive encryption... it is nice for laptops though, I was actually considering encrypting mine in case I ever lose it or it's stolen.

you never know=) it is always good to have all the actual "evidence" (not we-caught-your-ip-address-downloading lame sh!it) that might hurt you hidden from the mafia and authorities

i dont see a problem here tbh i have all my hdd truecrypted though i didnt use a password, just a key file that consists of a number of files of different extensions(some song some images whatever looks not suspicious).

o instantly degauss your disks?
