Torrent Tracing?
this is just a rumor i heard but i was curious to how possible it would be. My friend recently informed me that they are lacing torrent trackers with actual trackers and i was wondering if this was possible and if there was a way they could track torrent downloading. cuz i mean i run my Browser through a different proxy then my client and i daily change my WAN IP so are there extra things to do to stay safe?
also
what about Rapidshare and other file hosting websites?
yes they do track torrent trackers and log IP's of anyone downloading.
often how the RIAA catch people.
theres a program called PeerGuardian that can aid you in not being traced. PeerGuardian has a list of IP ranges used by the evil companies that trace you.. and all it simply does is stop you downloading from their machine, thus you arent logged.
hope that helps.
