| I guess it's pay-pals right to do so. I am sure we will next read about hackers targeting Paypal because some where they think they have a human right to use Paypal. Pirates are pretty clever so this shouldn't be more than a speed bump.

| Run your own private vpn server to encrypt traffic and your isp will be back step 1 |

Boston, MA | Running your own VPN server doesn't accomplish anything (other than letting you VPN into your own network from a remote location). |

Evanston, IL | you can still buy a private server with paypal, then you can use that server anything, including setting up a VPN to torrent with. Paypal is being silly and over stepping their bounds. |

| Both of you don't quite understand how running a VPN server would work. Running a VPN server at your own location would allow yourself (and possibly others) and use a VPN client to connect to you...
But unless you have a VPN client connection to another site... your ISP would be able to see all traffic going out that you are providing to your clients... as they would effectively be using your connection.
"buying a VPN server" isn't an option... and if you don't understand that... then you don't understand the mechanics of a VPN, or it's purpose. |

I *think* what FBGuy is trying to say is that you can buy a hosted server in a data center somewhere and use it for VPN. I don't agree with that since the hosting company is likely to keep logs and will not be happy if they get a subpoena because the server is being used to facilitate copyright infringement, etc. |
