I know. I have a torrent friendly ISP anyway.
and I encrypt outgoing connections. I also have found a great number of legal holes in my country that I can use to evade prosecution.

Are you using a VPN service? That's the ideal way to avoid any problems. You just have to be sure to go with a reputable VPN service like HMA(HideMyA**) or SVPN(StrongVPN).

hidemyass rat out their users. and you can still get the destination IP using a "bad apple" attack.
as far as I'm concerned Tor is far superior to any VPN(so long as you are using peerblock and SSL encryption)

I have to respectively disagree. HMA does not rat out their users. There's all kinds of rumors about them including them going anti-p2p which is total BS. I've used Tor in the past. It's not better than VPN.

You do realize that HMA is the #1 VPN service of all, right? You can visit just about any review websites for VPN & they are #1. Yeah, we have to pay for any VPN service but getting the best for a lower price than most competitors is what you get from HMA.

all i need is a cheap price for a fat 60 gig ps3 as they're still 2-300 on ebay ugh!....a better cfw would be a nice bonus as well
