lol.. I thought it was legal to download torrents, anyway.. What would it matter if they did track your ip?

I am surprised to see this coming from you, whatever gave you this idea, eh?

Many bad things.

Well.. that depends what you download. You can download software that are torrents, and that is not illegal so long as you don't infringe copyright laws.

I wish them good luck finding my ip, as I always use peer guardian, my TOR proxy, an ip annonymizer, etc. There is no way that they will be sending any cops this way :)

Don't take them for suckers would be my advice - they have their own ways. ;-)

Well, I don't know of any legal way that they could tack me.. and of course, they always go for the idiots who don't use proxies/annonymizers first ;)

The Pirate Bay operates within the confines of Swedish law; they are doing nothing illegal. They have been raided a few times due to pressure on the Swedish government from US companies.

TorrentSpy will be missed; it filled the niche that suprnova left; another site will spring up very soon no doubt.
