You Can be Excommunicated of the Internet for Using P2P

Do you use P2P? If you do not — too bad, it’s an excellent technology! If you do — too bad, you can be punished.

By the way, the punishment is not just strict, but inhumanly cruel: you may be deprived of your right to access the Internet for a period of one year. For a year, Carl! What do people do for a year without the Internet? And how many terabytes of your own progress would pass away during this year?

It is better not to check. And yet, the danger of staying out of the world’s Web is real. But let’s talk about everything in order.

— What is P2P?

— P2P (peer-to-peer) networking technology is the way to encrypt information into the Web, so you may have the possibility to download it to your computer from another one, connected to the special programm. In fact, the aggregator sites themselves, where thousands of accesses to download everything in the world graze, don’t really contain any bite of the information offered to a user. In this case the computers of other users become peculiar temporary servers, making the data exchange super-convenient and mega-fast.

— And how is my information protected from others’ eyes when using P2P?

— The internal information on each computer is protected by a special client safety-system. So you can download software, movies, photos and any other content in almost unlimited doses.

— So why is the use of it illegal?

P2P technology is convenient, and therefore popular, so its active use has concerned the legislation of many highly developed countries. Governmental structures attribute such a method of data transfer to piracy, that is, theft of copyrights to works of creativity. And you should be aware, that lately the legislation on this subject has become much tougher.

Back in 2013, it was possible to shackle just a fine for piracy with the help of p2p, then it came to administrative responsibility. Since the measures had not got much effect and the technology continued to be the most popular one for remote file sharing, today the repeated use of it may be threaten with the Internet disconnection for a year — the companies-providers actively joined the fight against illegal “plum”.

— Is there a solution to the problem in order to enjoy all the benefits of p2p and not pay to its access?

— Yes. This is VPN coverage. It will protect the inner information of the user with a special encoding, which can not be recognized by anyone except you and current recipient. It hides your IP address — that’s why nobody can clear up, which files you has downloaded, which sites you has visited and which movies you preferred to watch today. This means that you can enjoy all the delights of this way of sharing in your countryside in Detroit, while your IP tells everyone, that you are in Burkina Faso.

— Does this mean that I will have another “heavy” application that will devour my traffic and slow down the processes?

— VPN-coverage does not weigh much, it does not stress neither the processor, nor the graphics card. Also VPN does not hinder the loading and data transfer, does not interfere into your Internet-surfing and doesn’t influence the speed, even when watching videos, online TV and playing Web-games. You do not even feel its “presence”, while the contribution to your peace of mind is really significant.

— How much does it cost?

— Good VPN-services offer free versions with limited functionality, as well as full-length version for fee. We offer you a full-fledged program for free test period, so you may appreciate all the bonuses of being invisible.

And don’t allow your friends to disappear from the access zone due to their harmless love for free file sharing. Repost!
