>got dinged by ISP for stealing movies for the first time
Do you pay for a VPN? Is it worth it as opposed to renting movies/streaming subscriptions? I really only know how to pirate music.
Got dinged by ISP for stealing movies for the first time
You won't be prosecuted for pirating movies, just ignore the emails, they only do it scare people. But if you're really paranoid, just join a private tracker.
They could disable service, Depends on the ISP.
torrents are pleb tier use ddl
They just keep dinging you and nothing happens of it. The emails are automated and they just want to avoid liability. No human is going to see that you downloaded Pirates II: the revenge of Captain Victor Stagnetti.
They won't issue a fine or anything? I should at least find a better torrent site then
Mine shuts you down and forces you to call in to start it back up. Any browser you use brings up the "YOU ARE A PIRATE" message, but it's Altice which is straight trash. We're getting fiber before the end of July and they are just now coming out to do proper maintenance and improve the lines. I'm supposed to get 400 mb/s but I never get more than 100.
The fiber costs the same, but even if I get 101mb/s it will be worth it to not give money to Altice anymore.
I'm calling bullshit
an ip doesnt mean it was actually you
they have to prove you actually downloaded it
its all scare tactics
>get message
>hello mr user we have logged your download of copyrighted material belonging to....gloryholeswallow.com
>yep
>uhm...right, as you know we have a three strikes policy on pirating copyrighted material and this is your first strike
>yep
>that's all
>'kay, have a good one
>you....you too, mr user
If it's a big isp, you're fine. They don't tend to care unless you're seeding big time. They just pass on the message from whoever caught you.
Smaller isps tend to get pissy about it though. Mostly through throttling or cancellation of service.
Get peerblock, find some better trackers, and seed less.
damn, getting hit for cowboys and aliens. Of all movies.
Altice is pretty shit, but it was my only option. They had a monopoly until one of the guys who owns the fiber ISP bought a vacation house in my community.
You could learn to torrent from Russian sites like rutorrent. They don't monitor those swarms. And they ironically have much better seeders and selection than English torrent sites.
I meant rutracker
I max out at about 1.2 Mbps. My only other option is satellite which is even worse. Shit sucks, dude. Every other street in my town has cable internet access, but mine doesn't
Stop torrenting newfriend. Torrents are for the poors. There are free streaming sites that play the same torrents you're dling.
Wait. There's a pirates 2? Dude the first pirates was so good they edited out the sex scenes. It was one of the last things i recall seeing in a video store before they shut down here.
I will give you guys a free tip, and this is literally the only shit Reddit is good for, but just Google whatever you wanna get and Reddit and after a while you'll find.
In the process of getting the latest Adobe Creative Suite for 2019 a Reddit user's post linked to his blog where he uploaded tons of cracked software and he had several VPNs like Nord and shit. VPN seems solid the few times I've used, and the Adobe Suite is fanfuckingtastic.
So yeah, just find that shit by Googling it and Reddit.
>Streaming uncompressed 4k blu ray rips
yikes
>suddenlink
these faggots have a monopoly on high speed in my area. it's them or fuckin dsl
Found the publicly educated American.
I have subhuman-tier download speeds where I live in the US, under my monopoly ISP. Streaming isn't the best option for where I'm at, especially for large high res files. I have used exactly what you're talking about before. I also steal other things than just movies
Yeah, you can be the fastest internet in town if you're the only internet in town. One time I called in and they wanted my account number and I told them I have never received a bill and was just paying it online through auto-bill pay through my bank and she wouldn't look up any of my other information. It was an honest-to-god nigger and so I just started listing off strings of numbers because she couldn't hang up on me. Eventually she transferred me to customer retention and they scheduled a tech to come out. Who never did.
>criticizes others while watching compressed 720p """HD""" streams on his Thinkpad
Yeah, I'll take my American education and watch my uncompressed 4k on my 110" projector.
You literally just enable full stream encryption on your torrent client you fucking tool!
Does utorrent have that?
