Imagine having to explain that letter to the Mrs…

They have porn on the Internet now!? Huzzah!!!

Manys the poor bloke that will be trying to intercept the postman at the bottom of the driveway for the next few weeks.

I couldn’t give a shite if my other half watches porn, as long as he shares. And as for the God nonsense, if the big lad sitting on a cloud is real, and gave us eyes, he should not have given women boobs, he started it!!!

Seriously though, This is a really unsettling example of Internet tracking!

On a lighter note, would pay to see the look on some teens face when his father calls him down and asks him to explain this letter! Lol

I’d say there could be a few teens getting clips round the ears!

I got sacked from my job for looking at porn.

The only details they can obtain from the IP address is the account holder of the ‘Internet Connection’ account, One block of apartments could share a single internet connection, Who takes the blame? The Apartment Management Company? Every Tennant? A lot of Old people and non ‘Tech Savy’ people have un-secured wireless connections that could be abused by neighbours, again the blame will fall on the internet connection account holder.
This detection method is very much flawed and I believe the companies using this technique are aware of this, the letters they send are very threatining and written in such a manner to scare people into making a quick cash settlement or face court. Fact is most of these cases which do make it before the courts would be thrown out! This type of bullying and intimidation by big corportations should be illegal!

So can someone tell me, with all the phone tapping scandals in the UK where by papers were listening into peoples phone calls. Does watching what people download not amount to the same thing and by O2 passing on information to the porn company about something you watched or did while on your own private connection despite it being their own video are they not as bad as the journalists that tapped celebrities phones??? I am starting to think that double standards are at work here!! If my phone line is supposed to be covered by privacy laws why isn’t my Internet line?

I’m gonna pay a lot more attention to what I tweet about from now on lol

Just when you thought it was safe to spank the monkey! O2 see wat u can do (excludes monkey spank)!!!

*checks calender* – thought it was 1st April..

Hmmm. Let me check. The 19th of May you say? The night of the massive party at my house? Whats a WiFi password? Case closed.

im off to look at porn yeeeeeeeee hahah

This is just legalized extortion. There is ample examples of the wrong people being accused of breaking copyright on the internet, from the anti-piracy crowd accusing inkjet printers, blind people for porn, to dead people. I have no faith in the methods they use to actually target the people responsible for breaking the copyright. There is also strong reasons to believe that when people get the letter threatening them, regardless whether they are actually guilty or not, they are strongly compelled to settle. The settlements are expensive, but no so expensive that, at least for a lot of people, it isn’t worth having your name attached to some really explicitly and kinkily named porn movie.

Even worse than that, there is a lot of president that the lawyers involved have no intention of actually suing people who infringe, rather they are looking to shake down as many people as possible, collect as many settlements as they can and then just let the case against the rest quietly expire.

Why do people download porn anyway when you can just stream it? ;)

Ben Dover. Haha

that company are crooks anyway,

fair play to them.if thats all we have to worry about hahaha

Again, God works in mysterious ways!
