Anyone else remember all the Torrentfreak articles from the early 2000’s about how folks in major corporations and the government were torrenting TV shows and music on corporate/government computers?

Everyone’s IP is exposed in a swarm, all Torrentfreak did was track down those IPs, and tons of them went to corporate and government networks and computers.

In another universe, Meta is being sued for having leeched without seeding

Doesn’t matter, laws are for the poor, not the rich elite!

There are actually legal torrents and valid reasons to download them from within a company network or company workstations, for example here are the Debian install media torrents: https://www.debian.org/CD/torrent-cd/

However, you should make sure the admins and bosses don’t mind.

I hope they still seed, ’cause that ratio is gonna be hard to fix…

So they work at Meta, but this is what doesn’t feel right?

I mean, I didn’t have to write this explicitly, just wanted to know how many people had that same smile. The headline is gold.
