How Do You Protect Against The Riaa?

[Forevame7189]

I see many people have their ways of protecting themselves, such as using a proxy, peer guardian, etc. But what is YOUR method in protecting yourself?

[stonecold1203]

Not using p2p

[J'Pol]

Peer Guardian.
Firewall
NAT Router.
Proxy Server.
K++ Privacy Option.

Simple. Just not downloading music as much I really don't care for music like I used to. When I first got my comp i was already 3000 mp3s and rising. So there really no reason to be scared cause the only way u get in trouble with them is downloading music files. Me myself I use BT most of the time until I can't find something on there then i search kazaa 8 times out of 10 i find what i'm looking for here

*BBBBZzzzzzt!* WRONG! You are only a target for the RIAA if you UPLOAD ILLEGAL MP3s. They are going after those who are OFFERING copywritten music for others to download.

Argh! :pirate:

Ok, this aint a pop quiz about the riaa, and I am not wrong because once you download your going to share it unless your a leech so quit thinking u know everything Mr. Expert on RIAA

[I'm_going_slightly_mad]

Yes, you do share the files, however, if you have the privacy option checked, no one can see what they are. I am no expert, and I am not acting as one, but I do know what I am talking about. The RIAA is going after the UPLOADERS who have their files listed and not downloaders (who are sharing) who don't. I don't leech. I play it safe by not listing my files.
