Post How do you download anime safely? - 09-20-2011, 03:00 PM

I heard that in countries like US and Australia, people track down your download activity and some people actually got arrested. But since many people here are downloading as well, how do you guys download it safely both torrent and direct download? Do you use protection or you just download it directly? Have you ever got warned by your ISP or fined?

Buy a computer/server in Lund under the Pirate ISP and connect to your computer Via SSH.
Otherwise just download normally and hope they don't bother spending 10k usd trying to track you down.

For torrent downloads there are software such as Peer Block and/or services like Bit Guard. For direct downloads that's a bit trickier. The best method for both is a proxy server. This hides your IP by placing a proxy IP in between you and the copy right infringement police searching for you. Though I don't use them, I have set up a few friends comps with Tor and Vidalia ( you use both programs in conjunction with one another.) and they seem to be happy. Though they are computer illiterate.

The truth is there is no full proof method to protect yourself. However if you are caught there is only a 1 in 10 chance that you will not lose your penis. If your still worried about safety during downloads either wear a condom or pull out.

I wouldn't worry about it, you have already joined our site which automatically places you on the international list of ppl who frap to much to copy righted material so just enjoy.

Click, download, relax.

Most shows I download/steal are not licensed in my country, and the few movies I get via torrent tend to have a few thousand seeds and peers, and I often remove it on completion; ergo I assume that the authorities have bigger fish to fry and that I am relatively safe. For now.

In Australia, it is not copyright infringing unless you are making a profit from the pirated copies. If you use your downloads simply for home-use, then the law legally cannot do anything.

How the hell did you hear about that happening in Australia? We are one of the most lenient countries when it comes to law.

I think "they" are more after the uploaders than the downloaders.

Good thing I'm just a freeloader
However. I think the best way is to just not care weather police gets you or not. You're downloading anime. You're not murdering anyone. What are they gonna do? Put you in jail?
You might have to pay a fee, unless you live in some tyrannical country.
