It’s not hard and it’s actually quite efficient to do so. All you need is a fake uTorrent signature and a list of trackers. Just pretend you have all the parts described in the torrent file and start “offering” blocks. Every request that comes in is an attempt to illegally download a file.
You can go one step beyond and use the torrent file to search the DHT tree for people that don’t even use trackers.
Of course, as rights holders, these companies have the legal right to distribute parts of their content as they please. They can legally send you half a frame of video and determine you’re downloading the entire torrent quite concisely. That’d be a waste of expensive networking bandwidth, though.
You stop seeding because you are selfish.
I stop seeding because I am selfish.
We are the same.
I stop seeding because I work for the MPA and I have finished logging all the IP addresses. We are not the same.
I stop seeding when I don’t give AF, we’re not the same.
I cap my seeding just low enough that it looks like I’m helping but I’m doingvfuck all, were not the same, I’m just a cunt.
I stop seeding when rutracker admin tells me to, we’re not the same.
🫡 more brave than the trops.
They say they use a modified torrent client which doesn’t upload at all. I don’t believe them though.

A lot of times the rights holders sell the right to enforce the copyright to copyright trolls who don’t have the rights to distribute the content.
Had to read that twice lol
I stop seeding because otherwise i can’t have a good ping
Ergo, selfish
No one is missing my 23 kb/s upload
If you play around with the qol settings in your router you can mitigate that.
