I prefer to just watch the movies/listen to the songs online ...

Saves space on my harddrive, and not illegal to VIEW a movie online .. (megavideo.com)

"but you and evan both disclosed that you aren't doing anything legal with your torrent activities, neither post says anything about protecting privacy, just more about "minimizing risk of being caught doing something illegal""


no, i distinctly did not. thanks for playing.

imho i should try every means possible to make all of my doings online as anonymous as possible (when suitable)

if you RTFP, you'd realize i didn't quote you now did i?

if that's all you are concerned about, than the thread is pointless, as you cannot be anonymous using bit torrent unless you are using a known private proxy which was mentioned in the OP

""so even for legal torrents it's now 'wrong' to want to be completely anonymous? ""

but my quote which you quoted was not referring to you, it was referring to agentlion and evan, of whom i quoted after i said that, which i probably should have specified clearer

"but you and evan" then two quotes from agentlion & evan, i apologize if i mixed up my quotes.

n/m, it's pointless, i mean this who thing has been covered.

for what it's worth, isn't downloading effectively legal?

at least, I've been under the impression it is the act of uploading, or "distribution", that is illegal with respect to copyrighted works and I believe that all of the MPAA/RIAA suits filed to date were for distribution

by that logic if you disable uploads, you'll be safe from the MPAA/RIAA, but you'll definitely be going to pirate hell
