I recieved an email from my ISP stating that they had recieved a complaint from Universal Studio's about copyright infringment from my IP address. They stated that I was in breech of my contract with them and enclosed the letter from universal.
It basically had all the details of a movie I downloaded and when, my IP address and DNS name. It just said that they knew I was illegally sharing copyright movies and that although they have certain legal remidies available to them it beniefits everyone to settle this co-operativley - and they go on to say that they urge my internet provider to stop this infringment activity and to inform them of their action.
Does anyone have any advise?
I was using Bittorrent at the time. Should I stop using Bittorrent??
The letter doesn't look that threatening - can they acually do anything if they catch me again, or should I say are they likely to do anything?
Is my service provider aloud to give people like Universal any of my personal details??
whats your ISP? if its comcast i'm not suprised but if its something else tell me!! :o
