• questions about file sharing

    From Rodger 'Diddley' Dipole@21:1/5 to All on Mon Aug 31 16:15:33 2015
    I would use a torrent site that lets you download without an upload ratio,
    like Piratebay
    https://pirateproxy.sx

    Then stop sharing as soon as it is complete.

    First a question about bittorent. I've used it intermittently to
    download TV shows I forget to record and for a few movies I wanted. It
    seems like about once every 2 years my ISP forwards me a notice that
    I've been fingered for violating the Dig Mill Copyright act. Is there
    a strategy for using bittorrentt that would minimize my chances of
    then fingering my downloads, or perhaps it's my uploads? Maybe that's
    part of the question, do the "Find me" because I'm downloading Gone
    With The Wind or do they find me because I let bittorent keep running
    and other people are downloading from my copy?

    Second question. Before bittorent I used to find stuff using eMule
    and a couple of other programs like that. That must have been 5 or
    more years ago. Is any of that stuff still active and if so what's
    the current "best program" for that kind of peer to peer file sharing?
    Is the eMule type sharing better, worse, or about the same as
    bittorrent as far as chances of getting caught in the net of the
    "millennial act"??
