Reddit must share IP addresses of piracy-discussing users, film studios say::undefined
Reddit must share IP addresses of piracy-discussing users, film studios say::undefined
Seems a little outdated to ask for IP addresses. Many use apps to browse reddit and phones get new IPs all the time.
Heck I can see some weird shit people download by toggling airplane mode on/off and visiting iknowwhatyoudownloaded
They can get the ip history from isps
How about the four billions VPNs on the market
I believe if you visited using a VPN it would show a lot of downloads.

So as long as you’re not doing anything illegal, you don’t mind the increasing size of the surveillance state? I doubt you do anything illegal in the bathroom, so you don’t mind if I do a little surveillance on your habits there, right? It’s just for anonymous marketing, I promise.
Something doesn’t seem to line up since you’re anti-google

Yep. People act like they’re suddenly safe because they switch IP addresses. All those addresses are logged and can be traced by history. Heck, even VPNs can be rendered useless if they keep logs and are subpoenaed, or you forget to log out of services that communicate automatically your IP address when you switch to a VPN. Just takes a little more effort to link the VPN traffic.
People don’t understand that the only thing between them and legal trouble is the willingness of the system to expend the effort to track them down, not that there’s any real security in the easiest methods people use to avoid detection.
Can you give an ELI5 for this site? Is it just a record of torrents you’ve downloaded/seeded from your current ip address?
I’m not sure exactly how but they show which torrents were downloaded from that IP address.
It clears after a certain interval though.
Neat page lmao
Never knew there was such a website.
Oh yeah it’s super helpful. They also have a bitorrent tester so you can see what the seeders see you as.
Yeah i already suspected such thing, but probably because i dont torrent things, i have no experience in there ;D
