12DrinkMore Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 "The Pirate Bay" does not actually upload the torrents. It only provides information so that the torrent client on your computer can find the seeders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muratremix Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 One shall not download torrents without a seedbox / VPS. Scaleway 50gb starts from 2.99 eur/month and 200Mbit unmetered transfer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the time. And you never know who is reading this.... No, it is not against the law to use torrents to download. You may be confused between the method used to download (torrents) and the fact that some people download and in the process also upload commercial copyright files with torrents - which is illegal. There is no such thing in Thailand or any country I've heard of has a law against a *method* of downloading and/or uploading files, including bittorrent. For example. The Internet Archive now provides files via torrent. Linux prefers use of torrents. For movies, Public Domain Torrents has more than 1,000 movies and a lot of other legal (out of copyright and Creative Commons) media. GamesUpdates.org supplies torrents of patches, demos and mods. And so on, and so on. Edited August 13, 2017 by wandasloan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And so on, and so on. And that's why I wrote 'most of the time'. Because most of the time torrents are used to download/upload illegal material. Which is why some torrent sites have been shut down and the authorities are trying to shut down the rest, in the bewildering belief that the people that download would otherwise buy the product. Often they would not, as those who buy fake bags, watches etc would not buy the original. By the way, you've appeared like a long lost friend from the days when you were my favourite read on Database. In fact my favourite read of the week at the BP. I learned of so much great software from you back in the day, some of which I'm sure I must still use. When the Wednesday (?) supplement was rejigged or vanished I lost touch with you and the other great crew at the BP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daffy D Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 3 hours ago, JRUSA said: What's a Torrent Torrents are files usually of movies or TV programs that are easily downloaded. To download a Torrent you need a "Client" something like uTorrent - http://www.utorrent.com/downloads/win - use the free version. Torrents to download can be found at sites like - https://thepiratebay.org/top/200 - https://extratorrent.ag/ These are open sites so be careful what you download. Private sites are regulated and you have to sign up to join. It's all free but ensures you don't download any nasty virus things. A couple of good private sites are:- https://www.tvchaosuk.com/index.php and https://www.torrentday.com/t - there are lots of other sites for Torrents but this should get you started, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
