    Anonx may not stop a man-in-the-middle attack from scrambling your data.
    Also, I am not aware that Anonx in any way encrypts or compresses your data -- so file transfers are still obvious to your ISP if they ever care to check what you are doing. They could even 'listen in' and create the same files from the traffic that you get. And they MIGHT if ordered to by a copyright complaint which makes them libel (due to DMCA&#33 if they don't!

    There are other networks/programs which ARE starting to use encryption and/or compression on file transfers, and combining them with a proxy would make you safe from almost anything short of a search warrent of your property.

    I didn&#39;t know, glad you told me. I really don&#39;t know much about P2P, just that I like music and games. I downloaded Hoobastank&#39;s album The Reason today, because I didn&#39;t want to pay &#036;12 and have it turn out to be crap. I like it and I was about to buy it when I realized, "if the RIAA had their way, I never would have got to hear these songs and I probably would have not bought the album." I&#39;m not going to let my money go to these jerks. So what, they&#39;re losing some money. But if they lightened up and stopped being such a**holes, then maybe we would start to pay for music again. Agree with me? Back on topic, so basically you&#39;re telling me that you do pay for AnonX and that there&#39;s no trustworthy free service? Oh well, I guess I might be okay as long as I don&#39;t share...

    And they MIGHT if ordered to [monitor a user] by a copyright complaint which makes them libel (due to DMCA&#33 if they don&#39;t&#33;

    It doesn&#39;t MEAN they have the capital or labor to do such tasks, only that they can be ORDERED BY LAW (thanks to DMCA) once multiple copyright complaints come in. This is probably still very rare, but there ARE legal precedents forcing ISPs to &#39;police&#39; their networks -- virtually eliminating the privacy of the users, UNLESS USERS USE ENCRYPTION AND COMPRESSION.

    Like when Verizon was forced by the US Supreme Court to turn over copyright infringer names to RIAA requests.

    Think AOL -- how closely you think they work with RIAA/MPAA?

    Perhaps it is you who is being naive.

    do u know how many laws they are breaking by decrypting private communications and recording (wire tap) ?

    I dont care if ur so-called "supreme court" "ordered" such covert operation just to find out what a user is doing behind an encrypted vpn network. It&#39;s just plain stupid to do something this cost consuming operation just to catch a few pirates.

    Doesn&#39;t make sense at all
