| 746694 | 2009-02-17 04:59:00 | I think its safe to assume that the ISP's arnt complete idiots & know whats going on with home users downloading Gig's of data. I think they can guess whats in a 650/700M file. It could well be the CD image of a Linux distro... |

| 746696 | 2009-02-17 08:20:00 | How is the new piracy-disconnection law going to be implemented, technically? Think of a couple of million tiny but deadly guillotines, quietly installed at the phone entry point of every house in NZ. |

| 746698 | 2009-02-17 18:04:00 | So will we see all the ISP's dropping there top line capped accounts of 20Gb+ as no one will need a cap that high anymore? | gary67 (56) | ||

I'm averaging 25-30 GB per month and I'm not a pirate. I download HD TV shows from iTunes at over 1 GB each and am often downloading other legal videos. It's not difficult to get into the tens of GB without pirating anything. |

If you are indeed downloading linux distros you have nothing to worry about. If you are using a public torrent tracker and/or you aren't using a proxy, anything you download can be verified and logged by the copyright owner. Search this forum for the Xnet user who received a copyright infringement notice, its quite chilling. |

Hollyweird may say this is an illegal download and have you terminated.. |
