I have to say 2 things:

1. As far as I know, you have to USE the software like cracks and stuff to break the law. Downloading them is not illegal. I think that same goes for torrents. (movies, music, games… law is the same for all) You cant watch fake movie, or listen to the silence (fake music) and be in the breach of the law that doesn’t apply to the non-existent movie/game/music.

2. Obtaining IP address via fake torrents spells “SPYWARE”, and that is questionable way to enforce the law. I’m sure that there is a law against spyware, and to enforce one law by breaking another, spells “case lost” in the court of law.

I think that the whole “fake torrents” story is nothing more than a delusion fueled by the MPAA’s lack of resources to fight the piracy.

they are not stupid people like most of you think. if you did not have these admins that cover your ass you would be sitting in jail ^^ or paying like, some big big big fine.

after all, all they need is evidence that a site is pirating. then they have enough to take to court and shut them down. put the sites creators on a 25 year ban on computers instead of jail time. they do that to hackers when they catch them just soz u know ^^

and when they catch them on computer they then charge them with unauthorized computer access then put in like for 25 years. wouldnt this be for assisting the piraters?

cuz if i were a musik composer, i would want to be making money from it. all they have 2 do is take down the leaders of the site, and then like, they all topple down ^.^!!!

i forgets to mention, i like reading the newspaper! well sometimes. i think something like this would be like, sooooz awesome 2 read, site taken down and the creators charged ^^

Who do we trust?

Of course this only works because we also have a sane legal system, meaning you are innocent unless proven guilty, and that you cannot be extorted by big conglomerates, like the RIAA or MPAA. They have to PROOF the damage they suffered, or they will pay for all the trouble they caused.

No offense, my American friends, I’m just pointing out what I think the problem is :)

Most of these women are nasty pieces of work who make they’re living preying on men just as much as men prey on them

Ahem… strippers, nuff said.

O but women are always the victim an need protection.

The worst was when topless police women were in a park asking men for sex (without money) an then having them arrested. Who would say no to a topless women in the park asking for sex (for free).

Now add the fact you live in a country that poisons you (Fluoride) so a corporation doesn’t have to pay the disposal fee for hence toxin. Going to war so corporate big wigs can make a killing (literally). Or just living in a nation where a women (stripper, pornstar, Tila Tequila) with no talent, an big tits can make more money in a week than your stupid ass can ever make in a lifetime, an still expects you to make more money an pay for everything.

An we live in a 1st world country, my ass!

All the evidence you need to pack your bags an leave for South America or Thailand

X-(Y+Z)=

X: The amount of money supposedly lost in reduced sales because of internet piracy.

Y: Money invested in Anti-piracy and DRM.

Z: Money lost in reduced sales as a counter-action response to aggressive anti-piracy enforcement.

As far as the “intent” argument goes (not applicable in Sweden) I would refuse to acknowledge that I was trying to download copyrighted material. If they can’t prove I knew it was “copyrighted” (I would claim I was looking for the “Sweded” version ;-)) and the file itself was a pile of legal junk, then there’s no case whatsoever…

FakeTrackers:66.172.60.1-66.172.60.255
FakeTrackers:66.177.58.1-66.177.58.255
FakeTrackers:66.180.205.1-66.180.205.255
FakeTrackers:209.204.61.1-209.204.61.255
FakeTrackers:216.151.155.1-216.151.155.255

I’ve pasted those trackers into a text document, as suggested, but how exactly do I add those to PeerGuardian?

Sorry – but I’m a thickie!

Thanks in advance -

All the millions that these people make apparently isn’t enough. Fuck them, lets seed.

Then eveyoen knows that if a file is named correctly, it was an MPAA fake??

I think its time to move from naming files correctly and abbreivate them instead. Then what are the MPAA going to do?

I Googled for something completely different, but found your page…and have to say thanks. nice read….

“ItÂ’s fried rice, you plick!”…

cool site…

second digitally signing the movies and music if much more important that anything nowadays … I mean if a man like aXXo signed his movies with a digital certificate no one will download any fake torrent that may refer directly of indirectly to use his name to catch IPs and since the IP that apears in any bittorrent client is your ISP’s not yours then it’s a whole shit people !!!!

Like a virus/trojan/worm that get’s into people’s computers and then starts quietly DLing and and seeding torrent files!! Isn’t that exactly what they were talking about doing to us? making our computers seed fake files without us knowing it? We should just turn around and do the same thing to them but make their comps seed the real files for us!!

It could even be devised in such a manner that if your ratio in other bittorrent apps is high enough on real valid files then the trojan would cease activity.. That way for real file sharers this trojan would simply be inert and pose no problem.

Coders, hackers, sharers UNITE!! They can never stop us and by trying to they will only force us to take more drastic measures.

I would also encourage ALL file sharers to support the artists and developers who they deem worthy. It is virtually impossible to find authentic (non pirated) PC games in English here in China.. 90% of the seemingly authentic software in seemingly authentic shops here are really pirated.. also even real authentic english versions purchased here are fraught with problems.. because even if they are in english they are not the US/UK released versions and often are incompatable with official patches.. etc. etc.

If I go to Hong Kong and buy a game and the game has major problems/won’t install or won’t run/just plain sucks.. well, in hong kong I never saw a shop with a decent return policy and it would cost more to go back HK and return it than the game cost in the first place anyway.. Enter bittorrent.. The games I like I do buy the next time I’m in HK.. if it weren’t for the torrents I would hasve never bought those games because I wouldn’t have played them.

Beside the point.. Coders please get to work and make the trojan/worm please, thanks.

A few things would alter the course of the trial.
-Date of accessing the site
-Dates of prior access
-Which OTHER files have they gotten?

However, a lot of you are assuming that they’re just putting fake files up. This is untrue. MPAA and RIAA put real files on the net, and then when users download them, they really do have a case, because copyright law has been violated.

If you live in the U.S.A, and the police take your storage devices and computers, it’s likely that you’ll be found guilty if you have any other files besides the “faked” files.

I strongly urge those of you who are taken in by the police about this to take a close look at their search warrant. It likely will read to look for the files that they faked – which of course, ANYTHING else they find while looking for that files MUST be thrown out of the lawsuit if it’s not explicitly written in the warrant.
The real kicker that they can still do to you is contact your ISP. Depending on the ISP, it is more than likely that they will side with MPAA and RIAA. So, you may have won ideologically, but you’re still out of an ISP.

So what can you do about it?
As previously mentioned, browse without traces.

-Download at TOR
-Set your tracker IP to be 255.255.255.0 or some NULL address
-Encrypt your contents that you upload, and switch IPs constantly.
-Get PeerGuardian, and get lots of lists daily.
-Download/upload in sprees, and then quit downloading.
-Wipe the HDD and rewrite random data onto it in at least 3 sweeps. You can transfer the data onto a webserver (ENCRYPT IT!!!!)
-Encrypt your entire HDD, AES preferably

One method that I’m still attempting to try is sending bad data back at the MPAA and RIAA, and seeing if I get blocked BY THEM! If their servers list my client as a bad client, they won’t ever connect to me, and thus, no data will ever be transacted on any of their servers. I’m still don’t know how their systems are setup so don’t go quote me on this.

Cheers

share everything and when they come to your door, blow a hole in their head!

My defence would be, My intent was to download this junk torrent that so many people have been talking about to see what all the fuss was about. :-)

My ISP would lose a shit load if disconnected me considering I also have 2 phone lines with them.

Here’s an idea, why don’t the MPAA (or whatever they are called) just open up a download site or buy them all out. They would make shit loads with all the advertising revenue.(Hmmmmm or maybe they would shut them down if they bought them) Maybe I didn’t think about that enough :-)
if you can’t beat em join em’

Maybe my intent was to download this junk torrent so many people have been talking about to see what all the fuss was. :-)

Maybe my intent was to download this junk torrent I have heard so many talking about! :-)

That’s kinda the point I think…
most mainstream media is absolute garbage.

Why do you think people are so quick to steal it…it’s not worth the $10 ticket price (usually).

I think people know enough to support the artists they REALLY like…the simple process of weeding out.

This is why the entertainment industry is kicking and screaming…
they’re becoming obsolete as the best artists are going DIY with their own computers…all they need is a distributor.

But then, I suppose your a big Shrek fan…

XD

Yey to the U.S., the “land of the free”. NOT!
