I just got a letter in the mail title "Copy right infringment , requesting that cablevision kill my connection because i downloaded shrek 3 and dejavu property of Paramout pictures" Now that the net nuet bill was pass every internet provider excluding verizon is obligated to give out your information to any law inforcement body when requested. Ill post scanned pictures of the letter i recieved in a minute.
Also just so you know its 5k per song if the RIAA catches you on Limewire wich is becoming alot more easier now with the new bill that was passed again obligates your ISP to give out your information to any law inforcement body.
Pics cooming up :/ I belive im fuked lol

prq.to = public tracker, isn't it?
Boo.
"Our records indicate that we have notified you in the past about similar complaints" LMFAO. Get a clue dude. This has been going on for a minute. I don't even use torrents or LW for those reasons.. I just download off RS links :D

limewire is a prime target(From the RIAA and FBI and so on for underage porn and illegal movies and music) so anyone who downloads off them its a matter of time till your ass gets caught 1) Warning 2) Warning 3) Apperance in court and loss of cable service it happened to my friend and acting dumb wont help suck it up and erase limewire
i havent used limewire in a year, ive been using rapidshare links for around 4-5 months now

LOL. RapidShare gives me 600-700kB/s with premium. Also, Ares is considered data miner, look it up, I've used it. Torrents in private trackers are where it's at, and newsgroups rock too.

@ flowmatix i also got that shit from cablevision, but i was downloading with ares and utorrent. i got like 3 already xD nothing has happened though
@ idenking when i had verison i dled tons of shit and nothing happened so i guess cablevision is gay.
a couple of weeks back i got my rapidshare premium account now i dowload using that and its great,speeds and no risk at all =) Kind off xD

well on the limewire site it says to be careful. they shut down WinMX and another P2p company. Ares is pretty top secret sorta. they are good and the speed for me stays at about 115 kb per second

first of all proxy servers will work to an extent but the RIAA will see your using a proxy then all they do is follow the trail and they get your MAC ID which you cant spoof best thing to do is use Newsgroups or something along those lines its to hard to track people and files i love mIRC personally
also the reason you cant display some pages with proxy servers from certain countries is because those IPs are censored for some content there goverment calls questionable

just pure downloading of 100% movies music pc games and more!!!!!!!
bearshare is like a sister of limewire, both ran off the gnutella network, I recommend using it only if you have a DSL or cable connection, and remember to forward the ports in windows firewall and ur router/modem

what about all these albums we get form rapidshare or megaupload, the ones in the metal thread or the hip hop thread..can you get in troble for that stuff
I got the same exact letter you see on the 1st page from downloading the 300 DVDSCR that HERO posted awhile back on rapidshare.com links.

07-24-2007, 04:46 PM
i think those notices are being sent to everyone who has cable vision warning them. They dont want people braking the law on teir network. flowmatix you said you downloaded shrek 3, thats Dreamworks publication which i believe isnt in association wit Paramount. nevermind read the first notice a little closer
I think we all just need to get rid of LW, BS, and all other p2p software.. Kazaa well thats a definete no no. but i think this is just an announcement that their legally binded to give up ur info if you should be caught downloading movies etc, etc

limewire only downloads from 10 hosts, while Ares downloads from i think the most i ever connected to was 41 peers for an mp3.
and it has songs that limewire doesn't have!!!
