ISP Throttles BitTorrent Traffic, Seeding

October 16th, 2013

I was just wondering if anyone could tell me how to get around my ISP monitoring my or what I download? They say they will suspend me if I keep downloading such things as music or movies….lmao is there anything I can do to get around this or hide what I download from them?
Answer #1
You could get a fast VPN (costs money) and the ISP would just see you connecting to the VPN and wont know anything. so you can download anything you want through it.

Change ISP, I wouldn’t even stay with my ISP if they said anything similar without a notice from one of those 3rd party ambulance chasing copyright scumbags.
If you get a VPN and your ISP is nosy, they will still see the amount of data, just not what it is, they are not stupid.

First of all I’d suggest using DDL instead of torrents, ISP’s usually look for and throttle P2P content due to the bandwidth it uses.
Secondly, I’d suggest buying a VPN and changing your ISP.

Thank you all for your help. I just think it is a bunch of BS that we are losing each and every day our freedom that they so claim that we have.. Thanks again to all of you..

Where I live, ISP’s simply don’t care what we download, even if we use torrents.
I’ve never had a single letter from my ISP despite downloading hundreds of GB’s even in short periods of time.

Yes I understand that not all ISP’s do this but there is a few that do and they are very big and wealthy companies. Mine at this time is Comcast which they are a joke and I have place a call to switch to a totally different ISP this week so problem fix. The letter state that they noticed that I have been downloading copyright materials and that falls under infringement laws and I could subject to suspension or fines or both..
Never have I had this problem until I switched to them. I always understood it with them is the whole uploading but now they are starting to monitor downloading I guess…lol
