It’s no secret that BitTorrent makes a lot of information freely available to anyone with an internet connection and a little patience. It’s also no secret that a lot of pickup material is available for free off BitTorrent, material that normally costs hundreds of dollars.
What is not so known is that (so far as I know) no pickup guru has ever sued anyone for downloading his or her material for free.
I’ve also heard that the chances of getting sued from RIAA, MPAA, or anyone enforcing their copyright rights for illegally downloading or sharing files is less than winning the lottery. Yes, someone has a better chance at winning the lottery than getting caught sharing/downloading files. I’ve also tried to search for people who used BitTorrent (instead of another peer 2 peer network) and got sued, but I couldn’t find any.
With this said, if you’re going to be a pirate, don’t rely entirely on the odds. Rather, be a safer pirate and use Peer Guardian 2. Peer Guardian 2 is a program used with a torrent application. It blocks the IP addresses of RIAA, MPAA, the government, and about trazillion others who are pissed that their hard work is being spread across the internet without a dime of compensation passed to them.
Peer Guardian 2 is not perfect, but neither are pirates. Download it for free here.
And go buy the real thing, because I know a lot of starving artists.
