    I like it hard and fast too, so using something that makes going up and down go smoother helps. A seedbox is a great way to go to stay safe and efficient.
    See ya in another life, brother.

    I don't use any protection. I don't think it is required for two reasons. One, the anti-piracy laws are not too strictly enforced in my country. Secondly, I download only from private trackers, and that too, old material. Old that is more than 6 months old material.

    Your cat is obviously stoned. Too much unprotected P2P per day I guess.

    I don't think one should be as worried about the tracker divulging your information as one should be about malevolent peers logging what you send to and receive from them. It's should be much easier for AP organizations to log information about thousands of peers on a private tracker than to actually take the tracker down.
    Seedboxes provide an excellent layer of anonymity, but as far as I know, there is no reason why those aforementioned peers couldn't attack the hoster of your seedbox and attain your personal information that way.

    So, what are the safest places to host your seedbox? If there is a thread in the seedbox subforum that covers this, let me know.

    I'm aware of the encryption available in uTorrent, and do use it. What does TS mean?
