I've been popped for this before. Just delete the file (or tell them you did) and all is cool.
In my case, the suspended my account. Cox. |
What ISP did this? I'd be switching immediately.

Lot of partial answers or jokes. Here's my take:
First you have to decide how you feel about pirating music. If you don't want it happening, then leverage those emails into setting that policy. If you don't care, then he needs to get smarter about it, which means using a VPN. Free VPN services are sketchy as hell, so you better look at paid ones. I'm no tech expert so I'm not going to get into the nuts and bolts. The main point is he needs to get smarter about it. Odds are nothing will happen, but I do know that it's possible to get sued.

You obviously know your way around the bit torrent environment, but the poster doesn't, and apparently the poster's son is a n00b at it. If he is going to uses bit torrents, a VPN is the only way to go. Quote:
I use IPVanish. It's not free ($9.99 per month), but it works perfectly. I received several emails from my ISP a few years ago when I first started downloading with bit torrents. I've been using IPVanish ever since. I've never received an email about this since I started using the VPN. The poster should check out this link: https://www.bestvpn.com/free-vpns/ |

LOL
you dont need a VPN if youre casually bit torrenting a few things (even a few new movies a week) , as long as you delete them immediately when your download is done, and youre not seeding... you have no room to speak of 'terrible advice' if you dont know how not to seed , or cant learn how in 5 minutes...you should not be bit torrenting or using a vpn come on man...shut your mouth about horrible advice before you splurt out diarrhea just to sound cool just limit outgoing connections to 1 or 2, lower outgoing bandwidth to almost zero, and remove any completed file...as soon as file is complete , do not seed you dont need a VPN, now THAT is horrible advice..LOL buy your son a VPN...how many kids you got bro? Your solution to breaking the law on that kind of scale isnt to cut back a little or stop doing illegal shit? Its "buy your son a VPN and let him go to town"? come on man... THATs not horrible advice? just try using your client properly for a week or two and you will get no more letters |

Good news is he's like one click away from snuff porn.
I'm assuming anyway. When I used to download songs on emule every now and then I would see a video pop up from one of my search terms. Oh what's this? Kiddie porn. Awesome! Should I just turn myself in now or wait for the feds to find me? |
I used to download shitloads of movies to my PS3 using some megaupload, and other torrent sites. Never had a problem that I know of.

See if he can download a Chiefs secondary while he's at it. Anything should help,
