Do any of you use it?
Dankeeee.

Y'know, there's software for that. Have a look at your remote control for the name.

It can easily be monitored. Its Peer to Peer, so the Bittorrent software shows you all the IPs connected to you. So if a film/music/game company wants to they can connect to a torrent of a particular file and record all the people downloading on that torrent by IP address. As the IP address is basically the same as giving them your home address the company can then contact the ISP. It has happened to people in the UK and ISPs have given warnings to people and have given them all the details of the file, time, date etc when the offence was committed.

Bittorrent is good but also rubbish since the trackers are always going down, very annoying when it gets to 97% :(

No it's not, do you know how it works?

Yeah I use it, it is good stuff, downloaded the whole series 7 of South Park with it.

Hush, you.

It's policed now, so I'd advise against it.
