What exactly would be considered piracy activity? Being on the Pirate Bay, torrenting, downloading youtube videos?

Would just being on a site like TPB be considered a strike?

(nayrt) If it is, there are going to be a lot of angry customers - TPB and other torrent sites also host things that are actually legal to download. (I know it's mostly pirated stuff, but that's not the entirety of what's being downloaded from there.)

Yeah, the sites themselves are legal. It's the matter of proving that what you're downloading is illegal, which is hella intrusive and really toes the line of legality.

Technically, ISP guys are generally only supposed to be able to monitor and access your service for, well, service issues.

Probably not. This is already a very very gray area, so they probably won't get so draconian as to permaban you for just visiting a torrenting site. For all they know, you could be doing it for research, or just got accidentally rerouted there.

Most US law enforcement/legal customs come down on the side of behavior-- as long as you're not out and out doing something, they can't punish you. So, just visiting rather than downloading is unlikely to get you "re-educated".

But you will probably get put on a watch list. Just sayin'.

I could see a case for rightclicksave being deemed illegal if they're not careful with the wording.

Yea, I'm curious as well; I've always downloaded my favorite fanvids...is that worth a strike too?
