wonder how legal something like this, since for the ISP to have any clue what someone is downloading would be to invade there privacy without a warrant something even the goverment does not do.



""The program, commonly referred to as "graduated response," requires that ISPs send out one or two educational notices to those customers who are accused of downloading copyrighted content illegally. If the customer doesn't stop, the ISP is then asked to send out "confirmation notices" asking that they confirm they have received notice.""

So if qw are accused we have to stop downloading what ever it is we are downloading? lol i use steam and other such programs how will they know my large downloads are not elgal if the system is automated?

more i read thru stuff seems this is mostly ment to stop kids who brag on forums about how they stole a game song or movie etc..


Anyone with half a brain can block there ISP from seeing what they downloaded AND from what websites they vist.


And no ISP is gona be dumb enough to cut people off and face a lawsuit when they have 0 clue what was downloaded.


Notice no DSL companys agreeded to this just cable companys.

I might have to pull my old USRobotics Sportster modem out of storage and add an extra analog line to the house again. tongue

Governments seem hell bent on destroying the Internet. Everyone seems to want to control something that was designed to be open. sad

how exactly do you block your isp from seeing your traffic? TOR?

Would TOR be someone anyone can use or does it take a degree of technical knowledge?

its easy to use just VERY slow lol.


basicly what it does is open its own browser(useing firefox for me)and bounces what ever site you look at around the world thru other tor network pcs etc.. basicly hiding what your viewing from your ISP and others.

I think I can live with that. Patience is a good trait to practice.

I wonder what kind of systems the ISP's will be using. I am guessing that they will likely be volume based and checked against a blacklist of sites. I also wonder if masking where you are connecting to will instead brand you as a malefactor instead of protecting you requiring you to now jump through hoops to prove your innocence?

I have talked to their tech people. That should be pretty easy...

You should have an SSL connection with a SOCKS proxy. Pref. a highly anon one. You can use TOR, but it's considered poor form to use it for heavy downloads/torrents.
