Re: Utorrent bought by MPAA

I think people just get paranoid because uTorrent is now being associated with the BitTorrent company.

See, if you never download illegal stuff with uT, which was not its programmed use anyways, then you won't have to worry. But apparently you do and you panic. Either live with it, downgrade to 1.6, switch to a different BT client, or don't download at all. Because you get the same type of risks as long as you BitTorrent.

If they catch you, the worst that can happen is they send you a threat letter full of lawyer lingo that you can kindly put in the paper shredder. Seriously, you probably have a better chance of winning the lottery than getting sued at this rate.

PS - You shouldn't read everything on the internet and believe it. A lot of these articles are misinformed about how since uT and BT joined forces that the program started sending data to unwanted places, which is baloney.
