WARNING: Internet Companies, Tracking IPs and downloads off Torrents. My sister, got a notice - has to pay $20 per song immediately or face $150,000 per infringement and internet cut off.



There is an article out today about how Internet companies are going to start tracking ISPs and illegal downloads come July of this year.

From above:

The country's largest Internet service providers haven't given up on the idea of becoming copyright cops. Last July, Comcast, Cablevision, Verizon, Time Warner Cable and other bandwidth providers announced that they had agreed to adopt policies designed to discourage customers from illegally downloading music, movies and software. Since then, the ISPs have been very quiet about their antipiracy measures.

But what they don't say, is Internet companies have already begun doing this, at least Charter Communications has.

My sister who has Charter as her internet provider, got 39 emails from them two days ago (4/4/12) telling her, they had tracked 39 downloaded songs off a torrent site to her IP address.  They said the songs were downloaded illegally and she had to pay $20 per song immediately or they were going to cut off her Internet and then file a $150,000 per infringement.

What that tells me is the Internet companies are already policing every computer and they are giving information to all corporations.   This is a way of them making big money.

My sister was not even home that weekend, but her teenage son was with friends.  The friends had gotten on the internet through their router and downloaded songs.  That also means everyone needs to protect their wireless internet and don't allow friends of your kids to use the internet from your house.  They could download songs without your knowledge and then you will be responsible for it.

Here is what was sent to my sister, just one of them.  She got 39 of these -  minus the IP address and personal information:


Dear Charter Internet Subscriber:

Charter Communications ("Charter") has been notified by a copyright owner, or its authorized agent, that your Internet account may have been involved in the exchange of unauthorized copies of copyrighted material (e.g., music, movies, or software). We are enclosing a copy of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) notice that Charter received from the copyright holder which includes the specific allegation.

Under the DMCA, copyright owners have the right to notify Charter's register agent if they believe that a Charter customer has infringed on their work(s). When Charter receives a complaint notice from a copyright owner, Charter will notify the identifiable customer of the alleged infringement by providing them a copy of the submitted DMCA notice. As required by law, Charter may determine that the customer is a repeat copyright infringer and reserves the right to suspend or terminate the accounts of repeat copyright infringers.

So, this is a way of companies making BIG Money now!  Warning.... You are Already being tracked!  Every download you do or anyone in your household does is being watched!  Download something that you don't know is "copyrighted" even though it is free on a torrent site, you will be made to pay.

It is outrageous they are demanding and making her pay $20 per song!  That is robbery, but even the music industry and corporations have figured out a way to screw the people along with all the banks, government and other corporations that run the puppets of the government.

She has to pay each $20, otherwise she will then have to pay $150,000 per song and have her internet cut off.

What will they be going after next?

Protect your IP address, as I have a feeling a lot of these notices will be sent out to millions of people.  Let your kids know, their friends can not get on the internet at your house, otherwise you may have to pay hundreds or thousands of dollars for it.

  1. Sherrie,
    I do believe this ties in directly, at the severity the judge was on his daughter (ya know that horrible beating video you posted.) From an event that had happened years prior. Obviously he knew what was going to happen with these copyright laws. She had already gotten in trouble for it and kept doing it. I think he didn't mind the video being posted (as a warning) as you are now complaining about the same situation she was being punished for and doing repeatedly. Don't be so quick to judge a situation so harshly, when reasoning with teenagers as they will ignore parents and continue the illegal activity that can be costly and ruin a family's financial security,and or prison. My take is if the spanking, and yelling stopped her behavior worked, it is up to the parent to decide the discipline, not Dr. Spock who had no children and became an expert. They want to make us responsible financially for the acts of our children.
    BTW, maybe you and your sister should investigate the companies who provided the software for these illegal downloads and go after them while they can still be held accountable. I did some research on this and it is out there and the whole ugly mess that set this all up in the first place. It is going to get worse.

  2. Torrents have been tracked since the mainstreaming of the sharing technology. Even before ISPs started doing things like making it easier for copyright holders to get into contact with the ISP costumer who had copyrighted content downloaded through their connection.

    Furthermore, torrents are the easiest way for individuals to be tracked. And there are more deceptive companies that purposefully put copyrighted material on torrents as a means to trap people for that extra 'royalties' source of sorts. Think of them being somewhat like the online version of debt collectors; only with far less restrained powers.

    Your sister definitely needs to tighten the security on her router including having wireless security set to WPA2 PSK with a good password, turning of router ID/name and blocking P2P traffic from going through it if needed.

    For blocking p2p traffic just search google for: Block P2P traffic on a (insert brand name here) router.

  3. Your sister is not getting her internet cut off.

    You are also confusing 'IP' (internet protocol, usually 'IP address') and 'ISP' (internet service provider, aka internet companies). The ISPs are not the ones getting tracked, the IPs are.

    An agent (such as DigitalRightsCorp, here) logs into the sharing network as a user and then captures the IP addresses of the seeds and peers. It then looks up all the IP addresses to see who owns them (you don't own them, your ISP does). Next step is to send complaint letters to the service provider. You'll notice the part that says FORWARD THE ENTIRE NOTICE? That's the big scary club. The part of the letter that Charter sent (the first part) is a form letter. The part you highlighted in bold is part of the AUP, and is legalese.

    Does Charter currently suspend service due to DMCA? No.

    Does the complainant/agent know who your sister is? No.

    Does your ISP release your personal info? Not w/o a subpoena.

    Does your sister need to have a talk with her son and his friends? YES.

    Does she need to change her router password? I would.

    Are torrents legal? Mostly NO. 99% of all torrents are pirated materials. If you can buy it in a store or buy a ticket to watch something in a theatre or have to subscribe to a pay channel to watch a show, it's COPYRIGHTED. HBO or The Beatles did NOT put their stuff on the internet so 50000 people could get it for FREE.

    The agents threaten to 'take you to court' if you don't pay them, but right now the only agents to try this are for adult movies. DRC sounds all big and scary but they have to prove you had the files on your computer. Without that they have nothing.

    I'd have a chat with the kids. If they have sharing software (BitTorrent, uTorrent, Vuze, MediaGet, Frostwire, Limewire, Bearshare, MP3Rocket, Filezoom, Grabit, BitComet, BitTornado, Aquisition, BitLord, Transmission, VooWire, etc) it should prob be removed.

    If your sister needs more info, she should call her ISP. Prob a good idea before you or someone like you runs off to the wrong conclusion.

  6. To put it bluntly , if you want free music, learn to play an instrument and join some friends playing, if you want a book, go to the library, make things of value your knowledge, and the rest can go suck an egg. The rest of the copyrighted material is just fantasy and mind washing anyway.

  8. I don't know that this is so terrible. $20 strikes me as a lot more reasonable than whatever the RIAA was suing for in the past (hundreds of thousands of dollars). At beginning of your post, you do say that this realtes to "illegal" downloads... I think that there is some truth to the notion that if artists don't get paid for their music, then they will cease to make it.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. But it is $20 PER FILE, that's unreasonable. Doesn't matter if you purchase the material afterwards, they do not care. It's still $20/file.

      I received one as well for every track on a CD that was downloaded via a phone on my router. Everything I have seen says to ignore it and move on.

      Delete
    2. I think the point here is that you don't have a RIGHT to illegally download material. IMHO the punishment has to be a little harsh in order to stop people from doing it.

      Delete
    3. Actually you do have the right! Just as you have the right to do give away your car or your CD after you buy it. The material on the internet was originally bought by someone. The Greedy middlemen in the music business are just trying to get MORE than they deserve.

  9. Rights Corp is only trying to scare you; they haven't yet filed a lawsuit against anyone (many people simply ignore their letter). Obviously they may decide to try and go after someone to scare people (similar to what the RIAA did with the million dollar lawsuits), however the legal fees are tremendous, and they are a small new company (I doubt they will actually issue a subpoena to find the person who the IP address belongs to for anyone. Rights Corp itself has stated that they are moreso trying to educate people about piracy rather than pursue through the legal system. Anyway, this is just another scare tactic, if I got a letter like this (not that I torrent illegally), I would just ignore it. But that's just me, if your conscious gets to you, or it costs you sleepless nights, or you just want to make sure you will be okay, go ahead and pay.

  10. Does anyone know how long you have to be downloading/seeding a torrent to get tracked by a company? I accidentally started to download something the other day by mistake...cancelled it after less than a minute and later found out it was a torrent known to have the company going after people who download.

    I never completed the download. Only got to like 4%. Can they get you that fast?

    1. I cannot speak for other ISP's but my employer (Yes, I am an Abuse Specialist for an ISP) does not willingly reveal ANY information about an account holder without being compelled legally. I comply only to avoid imprisonment. I personally despise the way that copyright trolls operate. Legitimate copyright complaints, fine, but the settlement crowd make you feel the need for a shower.

  12. I'm a bit apprehensive about this. My landlords got the same email. And I mean the EXACT same email. I'm not sure how much I would believe that more than one person would just so happen to be downloading the exact same music using charter Internet. Seems a bit like a scam to me. And plus, if it is true, you'll know when the RIAA have someone knock on your door to deliver legal documents which is how they actually take care of such situations. Anybody can send an email, heck I could send one now to people saying they owed Charter money! And not everyone checks their email. So why would they chose such an unreliable method of notifying you? Well, because they are scamming you!

    1. She ignored them. She said they threatened her but she told them she thought they were a scam and told them she was not going to pay. They tried to get her to do $350 over the phone. She talked to her internet provider. They said they don't have anything to do with it, but the company threatening her couldn't prove anything either.

      they have never bothered her again.... She IGNORED IT!

    2. Most copyright trolls will go away... I have to send out 300-800 copyright complaints per month form all companies. Most do not want a settlement, they want the sharing to stop. Out of almost five years I can only think of one IP that they might have filed a subpoena to compel me to reveal customer information. I am glad that they left your sister alone.

  19. All just a bunch of scare tactics to make you quit downloading. They have no way of knowing who you are. Try as they may they will never be able to stop piracy. I myself am a pirate, have been for about a decade now. Uploading and downloading content is more safe now than it ever was. All the letters do is try to scare you. They can't do anything to you because they can't prove you have the material. Unless they come to you house in black suits, (which they won't, that's ridiculous), and physically go through your entire hard drive, they can't prove anything. Everyone on this forum probably has some form of pirated software or music on their hard drive and they probably don't even know it. People need to just accept the fact that piracy will always be there, and they can't do anything about it. And it's not like they're losing a boatload of money anyways. Everyone know that the bulk of the cash made on a movie comes from theater ticket sales. Everyone knows that musicians don't make jack off cd/digital sales, they get paid mostly from concert ticket sales and merch sales. They only people who are losing money are the fat cat corporate jack offs that line their pockets with money made off the backs of talented, and not so talented actors and musicians. I will continue to spread the wealth of media entertainment forever, you can't stop it and neither can they. I don't make any money off of anything. With the price of commodities all over the world increasing at a ludicrous rate, I'm doing the the poor people who can't afford a 20 dollar movie ticket, or a 30 dollar blu ray a favor.

  20. I just got one of those and from everything I see, it's a scam. I was accused "copyright infringement" of some crap that I had never even heard of before, using torrent, which I never use. The exact type of infringement was never spelled out, (Was it downloading, sharing, selling, or whatever?) and at the bottom of the letter, it simply says "Infringement Type: null". Obviously, my accusers have no idea either. As I do not do illegal downloads, there is no way I could have committed the alleged "crime".

    When I called Comcast to complain about receiving this "Notice of Action" letter, I was told that there was no action going to be taken but it was a friendly followup to an email they had sent stating that there was a "bot on my network" and I needing protection for my financial information. I received no such email. The Comcast representative then directed me to a site that would provide me with protection that would cost me an additional $13 per month on my already too high cable / internet bill.

    The most infuriating thing about this is that my ISP, Comcast, gets a bogus accusation about an "infringement" that never happened, and then proceeds to lie to me about having a "bot" on my system and then tries to sell me software, for $13 a month that will not even run on my system. (I use Linux so Windows software will not run on it)

    I am not giving anybody money for anything. Randomly choosing IP addresses and then accusing the owners of a crime, is like picking names out of a phone book and saying that they stole your wallet. Sorry Comscam, and Dgital Theft Corp, that dog won't hunt here.

    1. Having had to process these complaints for almost five years (300-800 per month) it is VERY rare that anyone goes to the next step. That step being filing the subpoena to force the ISP to reveal customer data. There could be some ISP out there that rolls over... not me. I make them work for it. I am afraid that the Comcast rep you talked to was a nimrod. I have yet to see a bot that cares about BitTorrents. These are not accidents and most often are from an open wireless or direct use. The only service that they could provide to prevent this for you would be to block the BitTorrent protocol itself. These complaints are not random. They agents for the copyright owner slink around the BitTorrent swarms and take snapshots of the IP addresses participating in the sharing. Then they look to see who the abuse contact is for the IP and send the email. We just forward it on and explain questions about it. The odds are on your side that you will never have to go to court. however more than likely, someone did use your connection to download and share the content.

  21. I also got a letter from Rightscorp saying that I had downloaded hundreds of songs illegally. I freaked out and called them and they said I was going to owe $950 dollars. I live with roommates so I thought maybe at first they had downloaded music, but when I asked them, none of us had. Rightscorp calls me every M,W,F with an automated message saying that I owe money. I haven't called them back since for a while I thought it was a scam. Even though we didn't download any of the songs, we all have songs on our computers that we didn't buy either. We have since moved out of our house and cancelled our internet service. Should I just keep ignoring them? I need advice because I don't want to hire a lawyer (and spend even more money).

Like the other guy said, the statute of limitations is 3 years, after that they cannot harass you for it. Also, it's your internet provider who is sending your IP and information to this DRC company. If your internet company is spying on your activity, might as well cancel and find a new one. Also, never listening to Kary Perry again....BLEH.

  24. We received 30 emails about tv shows being downloaded on our IP, totaling $600.00. What you need to do if you get notices like this is change your password on your router if you have a wireless router like we have. If you call them they will call you back using the number you called them on (caller id). They CANNOT take you to court unless they have the computer or tablet or cell phone that the "Alleged" download occurred on. That means proof above and beyond something off of an IP. Unfortunately this happens a lot today. Our household pays for premium services like Netflix and Amazon Prime so that we can watch whatever we want, whenever we want and have been doing so since before the "Alleged" downloads occurred. The television show they claim we downloaded illegally is completely available on Netflix for us to watch at any time so there's no reason for us to ever need to download it when we can stream it through Netflix whenever we want. Ignore the calls and block the calls as they come in. Also they claim we downloaded the same show over 30 times, it doesnt even make sense. Just one of these shows through amazon prime costs 1.99 - 2.99 and they want to charge 20.00 per show. It's laughable. AND the downloads occurred from what they say, within 2 days and then nothing again. We have not only never before had an issue with this but, none since, so their claims are not valid.

    Don't call them, don't write them. If this has never happened to you before and then suddenly it does, don't call them and don't write them and Especially, do NOT fear them. I have a problem believing anything that has to do with the internet today. If they don't want these problems THEY are having then they shouldn't make their product available to such a market.

I called them and they wanted me to pay over the phone. I don't want to pay for something I didn't do. My boys say they didn"t. The artist was Pat Benatar , they didn't even know who that was.

  26. boycotting charter communications and mass cancellations would of course be the straw that breaks that back but then the government would probably bail them out.

  27. They said the songs were downloaded illegally and she had to pay $20 per song immediately or they were going to cut off her Internet and then file a $150,000 per infringement.
