heres a little fact i pulled up. You have more chances of getting hit by a car, committing suicide or getting shot by a cop that getting caught. But heres 2 questions

Is there a way to find out if the RIAA or MPAA is already tracking me? (i have bear share)

And what if i do all my downloading in a public center withoout signing on to anything?

Would i get caught?

Hi,
just reading this and thinking their is no real way around it. I dont know if any1 knows but i think you are tracked by your ip address(feel free to correct me, im all ears). If this is the case surely if i can find a way to have a dynamic ip addressing system i am almost untracable?

If any1 knows a way of getting around this please post, then we can all steal in peace!

There is no way to totally keep them out as such. However, this a way to keep them from connecting to you. A little program called PeerGuardian 2, runs in the background blocking millions of bad IPs. Personally, I feel it is a must for any P2P user.

Interested? visit their site - http://phoenixlabs.org/pg2/

Their are two other program's I use called Tor & Privoxy which work together helping Anonymous web Browsing.
(Tor)traffic is safer when you use Tor, because communications are bounced around a distributed network of servers, called onion routers. Instead of taking a direct route from source to destination, data packets on the Tor network take a random pathway through several servers that cover your tracks so no observer at any single point can tell where the data came from or where it's going. This makes it hard for recipients, observers, and even the onion routers themselves to figure out who and where you are.
(Privoxy) is a web proxy with advanced filtering capabilities for protecting privacy. go to http://Tor.eff.org and http://Privoxy.org to find out more about how they both work together to protect you. It can slowdown you Browser speeds so only use them when your browsing for torrents/P2P ect...

Even after all that it's still like waring a condom, your never 100% Safe


Cheers

In regards to using TOR -
Quote:
Tor, an anonymity tool from the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is being misused by many file sharers to make their BitTorrent clients run through the system, providing them with anonymity and a shield against the RIAA and MPAA. Tor allows people to anonymize their web browsing, instant messaging, IRC use and other things that use the TCP protocol. How it behaves is simple, communication is bounced around a network of servers called onion routers making it hard to trace the source or destination of data packets.

Now BitTorrent users are reconfiguring their BT clients to take advantage of the anonymity provided by Tor, to attempt to share and download material anonymously. This is putting an enormous strain on the network of servers and as a result is hindering performance. One of the main aims of the EFF is protect Internet users against "traffic analysis" which is often used by advertising companies to track your Internet use and create a profile of advertisements that would suit you.

The EFF sees traffic analysis as a threat to personal anonymity and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, and state security. However, it is not known how the EFF will react to BT clients using the network for file sharing. The network wasn't designed for the volume of traffic required by this form of file sharing.

However it does appear that the EFF was expecting that Tor would be used by file sharers who might want to download copyrighted material anonymously. The EFF offers node maintainers a DMCA response template in case any DMCA complaints or threats are sent in their direction
