Yes, if the copyright holder complains, they have to take action. That is not the gist of the article. Many ISPs are now actively seeking out violators of their own volition. Cox does not. Quote:

Typically, the C&D letters are coming from the copyright holders, who hire people to go on public trackers and monitor all of the IPs uploading files they hold a copyright on. They then send notice to the ISP that sends the C&D to the customer. None of that will work on a private tracker. So again, how would they know what you're downloading? The news articles mention some mysterious new countermeasure, but none of them give any details. The whole thing sounds like a scare tactic to me. |

I always run with the assumption that these companies can figure out what you are doing online

I quoted a post earlier in this thread that I said I couldn't speak to the accuracy of. Well, a few days after that post, this article came out in Time and said all the same things: http://business.time.com/2012/06/26/...online-piracy/ |

I misunderstood the article. In the end, Cox is still not involved with this cooperation. In the end... I'm kind of glad to see a kinder, gentler method of dealing with pirates. Anything is better than suing grandmothers for hundreds of thousands of dollars for their grandkids d/l'ing 3 songs off Kazaa. Last edited by pr_capone; 07-10-2012 at 10:33 PM.. |

Signed up for giganews...it came with mimo as a newsgroup reader/downloader. Any good, or should I look elsewhere for a client?

NSA allies with Internet carriers to thwart cyber attacks against defense firms http://www.washingtonpost.com/nation...kXH_story.html NSA Chief says we need a defense system for the internet. They are volunteering to run it. http://www.technolog.msnbc.msn.com/t...-system-914174 He compared the Internet's traffic to a toll highway, and said he'd like the NSA to act as the monitor. Most traffic would barely be paid attention to, like a car with an "EZ Pass" cruising through without being stopped. But suspicious traffic would be identified and tracked. As MIT's Technology Review points out, NSA has prototyped a version of an Internet monitoring system, with 17 defense contractors participating. If an internal alarm is tripped, presumably in the event of a breach, telemetry from the event is relayed automatically to the NSA. Alexander would like to see something like this applied more broadly.

Damn, I forgot what a bitch it is set up newsgroups (have not used a newsgroup in a long, long, time.)
Not getting crap for speed or connection with giganews. I am sure it is something in the setup, will just have to crank through it and figure it out.
