Re: What do Singaporeans do?
Singapore is amazing to live in. I have heard great things about the lifestyle there. As far as piracy rules go, you don't have to worry about them. My Singaporean friend has been a pirate for about 10 years, and no problems so far.
You're going to hate the bandwidth speeds there though. They're ridiculously slow.
Re: What do Singaporeans do?
If they catch you downloading they will flag you with a cane, till you can't walk.
Re: What do Singaporeans do?
they throttle a hell lot..
and the upload speed is pathetic
but not really many cases of getting sued in court..I guess you must be really unlucky if you get caught
Re: What do Singaporeans do?
AFAIK there are 2 ISPs there.
1. Singnet
2. Starhub
1 - Dedicated line, more expensive.
2 - Shared apartment block line, much cheaper.
2's upload speed is pathetic while 1 is still alright.
Just be careful on what you download and you'll be alright, trust me.
Re: What do Singaporeans do?
I would go along the assumption that as long as you don't use public trackers to download anything mainstream you should be fine. The only people I know who have gotten letters (albeit this is Canada not Singapore) have been from big movie produces such as Paramount and they got the ip's from public trackers.
Re: What do Singaporeans do?
take my word for this. there wont be much of a problem with anything here, as long as you know how to cover ur tracks...
and its especially not that hard for IT people like us.
Re: What do Singaporeans do?
at age 18 guys are drafted into the army, with no exceptions.
Re: What do Singaporeans do?
^^^Even non citizens? I have a friend who not only pirates from singapore but he also runs a tracker too. You should be fine as long as your careful like you have to be everywhere else.
