Australias fight against torrenting

[Atheisthumanistetc]

Thing I discovered by random... ISP had blocked TPB several weeks before christmas... now it is unblocked....

Possibly a trap... lul... kind of random though.

Tor CAN be used to download the .torrent files and/or the magnet links.
You don't download the files inside the .torrent meta files from TPB, you download it from peers.
VPN hide your traffic inside the tunnels while getting the files from other clients.
TPB has nothing to do with it.

I wasn't clear maybe. I meant that to dl anything, whether the torrent was from TPB or anywhere else, then TOR wouldn't help. If you want to fileshare things, then a VPN is the way to go. TPB doesn't have anything to do with it, but if you want to hide where you are dling from, TOR most likely won't help with that.

neat... That's where I am

Seems we even reach the depths of TPB forum for some reason.

I've never had problems with Amnet, if anyone wants to try..

When I think "blocking", i only think "big ISP/Telcos" less of a problem with smaller ones... Kinda like saying only main roads have speed cameras and side streets less so.

Perhaps that's just bad thinking... Not evading,,, but my guess is if your on Telstra, you'd be more likely to get caught because their more public than smaare ones..

Everyone knows them.
