A buddy who is staying with has been using Bit Torrent.
Apparently his Bit Torrent system was serving the file in

Hmmmm, looks like it's time to start running TOR and encrypting all traffic.
However, your "buddy" is an idiot.
What this most likely means is that he was running A) unencrypted
BitTorrent to B) the default port on C) a very public tracker like
PirateBay and D) not running something like SafePeer in Azureus which
blocks access attempts from known RIAA/MPAA shills.
If one is going to do something illegal, one shouldn't be stupid about it.
Am I the only one who has encoutered this from Cox? Have
they just started doing it? Other comments?
Probably just recent, but Cox is happy to comply. People running
BitTorrent actually use their bandwidth allocation. ISP's don't like
this because they are oversubscribed.
