(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Just yesterday I found my internet blocked on my router because (I forgot what program its called) found illegal data being downloaded onto my computer. I had to agree to the terms which basically stated it was a warning or pay the fines.

I was curious has this happened to anyone here before? I believe it was because I had accidentally left my seeding on for 2 movies, but it mentioned the downloading which threw me off.

Currently I am taking it easy on torrents and going to stick with direct links.

Anyways, any advice from anyone or events such as this?

It might be a good idea for you to invest into a pro VPN so your isp can't track your downloads. Try You must login or register to view this content.

I use to give free rep :/
I was downloading AC2 and a few days later I got a DMCA notice from my ISP. Luckily I was able to convince them that it was someone else who got onto my network, even though it wasn't Happy
