| it's totally not surprising, bell has always been like this, if they can't make a profit from something they don't feel like they should have to continue doing something, i don't remember the exact details but in the 80s bell was involved in something sketchy with long distance that was sort of like this, they were so corrupt that the courts made them refund people, i think everybody with a bell landline got a check for like $30... |

| the fact that cbc has made a deal with mininova to stream their tv shows online by bittorrent is going to affect this situation quite a lot. I mean, bell is preventing users from downloading government broadcasted content...
I'm one of those "selected users" and this totally sucks. Downloading shit at 30 k/s really isnt fun for me |

| yeah, the throttling they're doing for people on other providers is a bitch, too. If I even just visit a popular public torrent site like BTJunkie or Pirate Bay, the internet becomes unusably slow. Doesn't seem to have affected Demonoid yet, which is making me a little uneasy considering that there's a lot of rumours going around that it's now a honeypot..
The trick is to find torrent sites that aren't used by your parents. Since I much prefer cheezy/bad horror movies, [ Cinemageddon.org ] is a fucking godsend. |

| A completely legal form of entrapment for hackers/pirates. In the case of hackers, they would put a computer that was easy to hack online that would look like a legit server for a company. Once the hackers were in, they'd usually use the computer to "bounce" their hacks; anything they hack bouncing through the computer would look like it was done by the company, and since they'd hacked it they could erase the logs pointing back to their home computer.. But since it's a setup, it only LOOKS like they're erasing the logs, and really everything they do is being recorded.
Same with pirates; say a torrent site is opened up, everyone that uploads and shares torrents on the site is logged, and after a few months/years, all the major uploaders get nabbed for copyright infringement, and they can't do shit about it because the server was set up specifically to catch everything they upload and keep track of it. |
