As we all know, there are plenty of legitimate uses of torrent files that don't involve piracy. I downloaded my opensuse distribution using ktorrent.
I have been reading about how to protect from having one's own computer logged with one of the anti-p2p groups and government monitoring. Whether or not one is downloading legitimate or copyrighted material, none of us like to be monitored.
In a google search, the protection software and services out there that I could find are for windows or mac based computers, except BT Guard, which is a pay service.
So I am wondering, what are opensuse users using to protect themselves from government monitoring and having their ip addresses logged? Is there another service like BT Guard which is not a pay service? What about a utility that blocks IP addresses from known anti-p2p groups, like peer guardian?
Look up project Tor.
Hm..., I found this:

Sorry, I missed the bit about bittorrent, I thought the question was more about privacy in general.
Any other solutions for the OPs question?
Well, I think the answer is - if you're concerned about privacy of bittorrent, just don't use it. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (9.5°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
