They said I was downloading too much when I downloaded 320GB. So the next month I downloaded a TB and cancelled my service.

Don't do that! You'll just be setting yourself for trouble.

Best is to ignore and stop downloading illegal items as they have obviously targeted you (probably randomly at first, but now you are marked).

Bandwidth abusers have this problem...they really need to keep it under the radar the month after the warning or comcast will terminate the account.

Going through a router won't help.... Btw.

A wireless router gives you some deniability, but not really enough.

funny...i've never had a problem, maybe because i use a private tracker. i also usually buy upload credits instead of seeding.

Wow, How do you guys manage to DL that much?!!? I got a 10/1 connection and barely make it over 100KB/s manage to get it to 700KB/s with some anime that I would never watch, just had a lot of seeders.

I wouldn't picture someone with 'Cat' in their screenname having such a sucking fetish. Seems to be your favorite word.

if they turn off your service, you have to send them a letter admitting it before they will turn it back on. Just a heads up. They do not forward this to the copyright owners unless you have future infractions.
