John Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) except the people who own the proxy server. if they are in the US, then they can easily be subpoenaed. many in the US will fold just from a letter from attorneys. some will require a subpoena. try to find one based in ukraine or something.if you really want to get jiggy with the anonymity, look into TOR Edited January 20, 2012 by John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imprez55 Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 There seems to be a lot of misinformation going around here. A peer blocker only blocks ip's that are already on a blacklist so if someone wants to find you then its not that difficult to bypass those measures. Also, pretty much any free proxy (tor included) will not mask you enough to be hidden from prying eyes. If you don't believe me, try to enter a contest where it uses unique id's to distinguish visitors with some simple free proxy with foxyproxy or something and you won't get more hits. The best way to stay under the radar is to stay away from popular/public/new things.Twc did the same thing to a friend of mine. Easy solution: use a command line decrypt to break your neighbors wep key and beam off his router.I have no idea what you just saidHe is saying you should crack your neighbors inherently insecure wifi password and use their internet. You are probably on a million watch lists, of which downloading is on the lower end of the importance scale. Generally an ISP will send out 2-3 warnings before they refuse to carry you anymore.So, how does the government seize all of this stuff without them even going to court yet? Is that how this normally works? It is "evidence", so everything gets snatched up immediately. Its easier to ask forgiveness than get permission.5600+ Anonymous DDoS blasting away... probably the largest attack ever implemented... You would be surprised what China does...

JStump Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 Say you have dsl and every time you reset your modem you get a new IP, would they be able to track that? Because that's how my Internet works and I can get like 30 different IPs a day if I wanted just by doing that. I often use that to circumvent the wait periods streaming and download sites implement.

JStump Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 That works?I don't know if it is fooling my ISP into not knowing what I download but it works when I am watching a movie and hit the 72 minute limit or the 1 download every 30 minute rule.

serpentracer Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 I tried to find a link to that proxy server that is specifically for people to use to download torrents but I can't find it. because most proxy's will slow the connection down quite a bit. it wouldn't slow the connection down that much but you did have to pay for it.

ReconRat Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 (edited) Filesonic is gone. No longer available from the USA. edit: Filesonic no longer exists...Uploaded.to says no longer available in the USA.Unibytes gives an error. People think it's blocking USA.The question is how well will cloud computing work if it gets shut down? heh...

JStump Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 Cloud computing isn't about sharing, it's your own data that you personally use, most of the sharing sites are just turning into personal storage sites not and disabling the sharing aspect.

ReconRat Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 Cloud computing is about control of media distribution. Just my opinion I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReconRat Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 If you haven't noticed yet. Today and tonight, most of the download websites have shut down, or changed, or started deleting files and accounts.An article here at TorrentFreak: Cyberlocker Ecosystem Shocked As Big Players Take Drastic ActionAnd a list from another source:MegaUpload Closed. FileServe Deleting multiple files. Closed affiliate program. FileJungle (Owned by FileServe) Deleting multiple files. Testing out blocking some USA IP addresses. UploadStation (Owned by FileServe) Deleting multiple files. Testing out blocking some USA IP addresses. FileSonic Sharing disabled. Closed affiliate program. Deleting files and accounts. VideoBB Closed affiliate program. Uploaded.to Banned USA IP addresses. FilePost Started suspending accounts with infringing material (doing what Hotfile did) VideoZer Closed affiliate program. 4shared Deleting multiple files. Wupload Many accounts disabled. East European & former Soviet Union countries based file sharing services are working as usual :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like most cloud sharing allows sharing with friends, relatives, etc. But iCloud so far hasn't said anything, so currently it's no sharing. iCloud is also currently limited to compatible Apple product files only. Although they've just released an API for everyone else to "be compatible". some files like PDF, might never be usable in the iCloud.

That apparently gives them the right to not only shut them down globally, but now they are trying to "erase" all the data. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The companies hosting the data might start deleting things due to unpaid bills. Cogent is one of the companies involved. I forget the name of the other. The government has nothing to do with it. FYI.

imprez55 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 I don't know what happened to the photo I linked to, but it has since been replaced by a blank image. http://themetapicture.com/we-live-in-a-messed-up-world/The US government isn't deleting anything. The companies hosting the data might start deleting things due to unpaid bills. Cogent is one of the companies involved. I forget the name of the other. The government has nothing to do with it. FYI.They are not deleting the data at all, but it is the direct result of their actions. The data is unreachable and taking up space on servers that cannot be paid for with frozen accounts. I also don't doubt government pressure on Carpathia and Cogent is playing a role Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
