    In Canada, I get letters (well emails) when I rawdawg some torrents; but it’s never gone further than that.

    Prior to using usenet, I constantly torrented w/o a VPN (talking 10+ TB of data across 3ish years) and received a new email notice or two every other day. I’ve still got a folder with 60+ notices. ISP doesn’t give af, they just forward the copyright notice in the form it was sent to them, and that’s it.

    Now though I primarily use usenet and haven’t gotten a notice since. Downloads are also way way more reliable and faster.

      LOL! Did you spray 1’s and 0’s in their face when you were done?

      Teksavvy lets me do precisely whatever the fuck I want, and doesn’t make a peep. They collect their $80 and fuck right off until I need them.

      Telus, on the other hand, can go fuck themselves with a rusty spoon. They sent me a letter and I switched ISPs within 24 hours.

        Telus is the one that’s sent me dozens of notices; they don’t care. They just pass on the message they received and wash their hands.
