[NEWS] BitTorrent Isn't safe as it seems

I gotten an e-mail from Cox.net warning me about a file that i have downloaded and to removed the file. I downloaded Agent Cody Banks 2: Destination London off of suprnova so watch out they say that they might disconnect my service in 24 hours. I guess you may say "The Big Brother is watching"

You are sharing while you're downloading on BitTorrent.

Don't be surprised when you get letters.

consider downloading peerguardian. It blocks 100's of thousands of ip's of reported companies that will report you

This is the frist part of the letter

Dear Customer,

We are writing on behalf of Cox Communications to advise you that we have
received a notification that you are using your Cox High Speed Internet service
to post or transmit material that infringes the copyrights of a complainant's
members. We have included a copy of the complaint letter. Pursuant to the
provisions of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"), which is codified
at 17 U.S.C. § 512, upon receiving such notification, Cox is required to "act
expeditiously to remove, or disable access to" the infringing material in order
to avoid liability for any alleged copyright infringement. Accordingly, Cox
will suspend your account and disable your connection to the Internet within 24
hours of your receipt of this email if the offending material is not removed.

Please be aware that the DMCA also provides procedures by which a subscriber
accused of copyright violation can respond to the allegations of infringement
and, under certain circumstances, cause his or her account to be reinstated.
To do so, however, the response must meet certain criteria. Pursuant to
section (g) of the DMCA (17 U.S.C. § 512(g)), you have the right to submit to
Cox a counter-notification which, to be effective, must include the following
elements:

(a) a physical or electronic signature of the subscriber;
(b) identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has
been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was
removed or disabled;
(c) a statement under penalty of perjury that the subscriber has a good faith
belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or
misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled;
(d) the subscriberÂ’s name, address, and telephone number and a statement that
the subscriber consents to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for
the judicial district in which the address is located.

In the event that you submit to Cox a counter-notification that includes these
elements, Cox will forward your counter notification to the complainant and
advise them that Cox will cease disabling access to the allegedly infringing
material in ten (10) business days. Unless the complainant notifies us that it
has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain you from engaging in the
allegedly infringing activity prior to the expiration of those ten (10)
business days, Cox will reactivate your account.

Sincerely,

The Cox Abuse Team

Shanto20 is right.

Your getting caught for uploading! Doesn't matter if your uploading slow, all or part. Your getting caught because of uploading.

People really need to wise up to this,

Quoting
I get insane speeds from Bit torrent - But they seem to discard the fact there uploading/sharing at the same time.
So as long as you don't do it again you will be fine. Take this as a warning my friend.

Peerguardian is trash. Learn how to IRC, fast speeds and you will never have to share anything.

Explain this concept, a file sharing community where no one has to share anything? And fast speeds too! Woot!
