Thanks for being reasonable.
Just one last note before I drop this. Here is the prove that BayTSP is seeding also.
Well if I look at it again it might not prove much but it tells you that my client is trying to connect to BayTSP without me even seeding anything.

Even though I am not infringing anything, these guys manage to show up simply because I show up as a DHT node, or they monitor legal torrents, or by some other way that I don't understand. Once they showed up in a public swarm when I was sharing DaVinci's Notebook (it's very Public Domain)!
Anyone who does P2P should use Peer Guardian. These guys are intruders and are (at the least) a tax to a swarm if not (worse) directly interfering with it.

said by TomClancy :Lets say that BayTSP is just downloading without seeding, which I highly doubt. But anyways, with only downloading they can only see the seeders and not the downloaders. They can only see the seeders, no matter what. It is the seeders that they are after.
So how are they caching people that are just downloading and not seeding anything.
Any legitimate (not cracked) P2P client is always uploading something, in some manner. I've tried to block uploading with uTorrent; can't be done. At the very least, there is a port 80 connection being made (outbound, to remote port 80). Most people don't try to block connections to outbound port 80.
That just tells me the they are seeding as well. If they have authorization to seed then I have the same authorization to download. You can't give me your car keys to your car and then turn around and tell me that I stole it. Doesn't matter which way they go they are still breaking the law to prosecute someone. Which wouldn't fly in court.
They may, or may not, be seeding. You can try to fight in in court, if it happens to you. I don't actually know how they do it, but I know how I would do it. And the method I use would fly in court. It would catch those making unauthorized copies available for download. The point you need to remember: P2P is supposed to both upload, and download. That is the point of "filesharing". Most P2P apps will choke a client which is only leeching, without seeding, to the point that you might as well be using a dial-up connection for your downloads, if you manage to block your client from seeding.
BTW, Idiocracy is a good movie, it reminds me of this forum, you should see it. 
As far as comparing to this forum, you are playing, too!
