So... I Got The Letter Today

I have been using Swiss VPN for years [link to www.swissvpn.net]

I tried a bunch before and Vypr was my favorite of all as I got a good deal with the news service but the VPN speeds got slower over time... lately I've been with fast VPN and have been happy with the service, no complaints...

Last time i checked they had free trials as well.

So you don't think they can track you over a VPN?


Good luck with that.

Please enlighten us oh wise one...

That sucks.

Its going to happen here in a month or two.

The list has been made.

I was reading about it on Torrent Freak:

Looks like the good old days of downloading with impunity are over :(

If you even had the first rudimentary clue of what makes a VPN function you wouldn't even have to ask that question.

VPN's encapsulate data....but they STILL have a trackable header that can be translated back to the original IP.

Back up a minute. Your ISP admittedly is keeping an eye on your internet activity and informing you about it?

nah just play dumb and say you had a back door trojan on the p.c and some crazy hacker must have been downloading all those games and movies... and then using your p.c as a server to download them to his rig and he left behind the evidence.. Fucking prove it was me cocksuckers! You can't.. Yes the data was routed to my I.p and re-routed else.. I don't know how this damn internets work judge!

Ill tell you guys another little trick too..

Cable modems. Assign a i.p. At the end of the day unplug your router and modem overnight till you use them again. It will force a new i.p because your old one gets released back into a pool of i.ps so some other sucker will get it. I'm tell you guys they can't track this shit if you know what your doing.

and keep everything on an external drive that you can disable easily with a big magnet like a speaker magnet. If they come knocking on your door with a warrant to take you p.c, make sure its all on external and zap the fucking things before you let them in. and never admit guilt.. don't prosecute yourself, and don't talk to them. Just terminate the interviews.. Its funny how they always get people to admit their guilt through fear and intimidation.

Actually I am extremely well versed if you must know...

Only between you and the vpn server once it leaves the vpn server your original ip no longer exists...

Stop talking out of your ass and spreading false information...

I would think the ISP can't 'read' it since it's all encrypted.....

One in every thirty Canadians will be getting this letter.

Talk about national robbery.

Yes it is encrypted they can't read it or make any sense of it at all...

All they know is the packet source and destination which is you and the vpn server but they have no clue what's in the packet or what you are doing.

They got a letter so they sent me one...

Thanks !!! I will check it out

Thanks !!! I will check it out

You are kiddin right?
....you know what?....on second thought ....GO FOR IT.

I will be looking forward to seeing future threads such as....

"So I got busted today....ask me a question."
"DHS raided my house today....ask me a question"
" I owe the RIAA $350K...ask me a question"


GO FOR IT YOU TECHNOLOGY TARDS!

I just had this bright idea based on this comprehension theory:

[link to dan.hersam.com]

"At lunch today someone brought up a meme that I had heard of before, but I began to wonder about its validity. The general idea is that people can read words with jumbled letters as long as the first and last letter are in the correct order. The following paragraph is used as an example.
---------
Arocdnicg to rsceearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn’t mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer are in the rghit pcale. The rset can be a toatl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit pobelrm. Tihs is buseace the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe."

So, all you need to do is write a little program that randomly replaces most of the intermediate letters in the words that the "degenerate copyright infringer" is posting online and viola, there is no more copyright infringement even though the readers of the post will be able to decipher the meaning.

You are welcome in advance ;)

Not to worry, OP. They will send you a couple more before they do anything about it.

Why don't you elaborate your knowledge instead of acting like a condescending asshole?

OP: What about using Tor net?

This is not a big deal they will do nothing about it ignore it

Send them a return letter referencing their letter and saying that their letter is proof that they have been spying on you and invading your privacy and that the fine for that is 14 tons of gold, payable immediately.

Send them another letter indicating that their failure to reply to your first letter constitutes an admission of the charges therein and that if they do not remit the fine you will come and get it.

I find Tor can be really really slow. Reminds me of the days on dialup :)

Plus for downloading (torrents) it's not an option...

I know! It fucking sucks!!

EVERYTIME the Government get's involved in something...they screw it up!!!!

The very deep ocean watch one only ? ... Nah never mind.

UPDATE:

I have been testing Fast VPN [link to www.fastvpn.me] since they were the only ones confident enough to offer a free trial with no strings.

Trial activation was instant and they did not ask for any "real" information. The trial account is only good for 24 hours but it's more then enough to give it a good test.

So far so good. No problems and it is really fast. I did the Speed Test [link to www.speedtest.net] and got 8.03 Mbps.

I think I will signup once my trial ends they are currently running a xmas special 50% off which makes it really affordable.

What about TOR....might be a lot slower than you would like but creates a maze of anonymous secure connections all over the world to pass your traffic...
