all their doing is sending out warning letters and then after a few disconnecting offenders net....

i would assume for you to get a letter you must fit a certain criteria....which is prolly alot of traffic, so i doubt many would be worried

lol are any of those your isps?

why are you upload 30 gb a day? lots of torrents?

with my isp they allow like 160 gb a month and they'll like send you out a letter saying if you continue to use that much you gotta up your plan

i've never gotten one i don't download like crazy just a few movies and tv shows, but my bro has b4

Just janking your chain.

Yea "lots" of torrents, I download and just let them go after i finish. Since I use private trackers only it's ok as it builds my ratio. Some times I forget DC on as well and that ticks away. My ISP has no limit so I don't really have to care how much bandwidth I use.

It's 6 ISPs, all of which are shit ones which meter your bandwidth both by throttling and download limt, meaning they are used by the clueless anyway

It's not like there aren't at least 20 or so other ISPs to chose from which don't do any of that kind of shit.
