No matter how many proxies one uses, if there is a file on YOUR harddrive, and it is being copied in ANY WAY to the Internet, you are violating the DCMA.
If ANY bytes of a moviefile on your computer LEAVE your computer to the Internet - you are conducting a crime. Owners of proxy servers will be able to track down which IP address was connected at what time. Since proxy owners will simply be presented with a "give us the IP addresses or we will sue YOU for copyright violations" you can be sure that a proxyserver host will gladly give the list up.
Private surfing is one thing. But if crime is involved, even the anonymouse proxies give up their information. -- »www.deanforamerica.com - You have the power to make a change! Support Howard Dean 2004 |

I'm sure by now, people already understand the crime involved. People obviously do not care. But what if the anonymous proxies intentionally do not keep logs? You can't get them for destruction of evidence, since technically, the data never existed before the subpoena. |

Actually, not.

Also not true.

Only if they actually have that information. |

@hes-cres.charterpipe | reply to maartena Wrong. It's not a "crime", its a tort. It's civil litigation and most countries don't give a shit about other country's civil law. |
