AT&T will alert a little more than a dozen customers within the next week or so that their service will be terminated due to copyright infringement, according to sources familiar with its plans.
Why it matters: It's the first time AT&T has discontinued customer service over piracy allegations since having shaped its own piracy policies last year, which is significant given it just became one of America's major media companies.
Between the lines: AT&T owns a content network after its purchase of Time Warner earlier this year, an entity now called WarnerMedia. Content networks are typically responsible for issuing these types of allegations to internet service providers (ISPs) for them to address with their customers.
A source said it's unclear whether WarnerMedia was involved directly in issuing piracy allegations in these instances, although it's possible.
This should raise alarm bells for ALL internet users, its time to take privacy into your own hands and store backups of everything.
Well this ought to piss everyone off. It sure would have 10 years ago.

user, the people behind I2P specifically encourage people to torrent over it!
Jace Perry
not using i2p over tor over vpn while connected to public wifi from your libreboot thinkpad bought with cash off of craigslist and running tails os from an sd card
Nathan Richardson
whats a thinkpad?
Charles Cooper
ibm/lenovo laptops. some of the older ones can be flashed with libreboot. you can bypass the intel managemebt engine on these as well. look for thinkpad t420. if youre really scared of being v& for shitposting here then buy one. if you are selling cp, im pretty sure law enforcement doesnt hack peoples computers, they just trick you into telling your email address or something

Most private VPNs can be trusted, but you have to do some research which ones can and cannot be. And no, not all of them are owned by Jews. Use your real IP at your own risk.
Noah Sanders
Lel! You still made that post bare ip! inb4 how do I know?

Kilcen giving cp distribution tips..

Oh, WE KNOW HOW YOU KNOW. I wouldn't touch this board without proper OPSEC.
Bullshit, I'm killcen.

Keep mistaking me for someone else, thats how more than just I can see your full of bullshit.
Luis Fisher
Thinks (((we))) do not know where (You) are. (((We))) even know when LARPers pretend to be the great and mighty powerful Kilcen.
We've been through this before. You always blink. I'm here to call your bluff. Who is killcen?
Cooper Nguyen
Seriously? Ask Neptune how that worked out for him.. (You) probably don't want that kind of attention. I wouldn't ask for it if I were you, unless you want a free test of your 'OPSEC'..
Caleb Johnson
The only time they tried datamining my stupid alias was the time all they could find was the town of Killeen, Texas.
I've ALWAYS used encrypted VPNs and hopped my IPs routinely, and spoofed all my metadata while on this board. And I have NEVER used mainstream social media services before. Good luck.
Ryan Mitchell
Neptune posts his real name, has his own Youtube channel, likely has a Gmail account and does other revealing stuff and ADMITS he doesn't use OPSEC like I do.
Thats the very big difference from me and Neptune.
Henry Cooper
KEK! Thinks that just because (((we))) don't plaster your dox all over the shitholes of da interwebz that we do not know who you are? Provide a temporary email address and I will send you plenty of info to the contrary.. Curious?
Alexander Peterson
As a matter of fact, I'm so tin foil paranoid, you could hack my system right now and you would not find any revealing information stored on my harddrive to identify me. Thats the thing, I prevail in privacy.
Zachary Phillips
I'll get back to you on that, promise.
Camden Green
Yeah. True. But remember how you got driven out of here last time. Neptune was never able to be driven out. Damn VPNs!!!
That would not surprise me one bit. I know about Binney btw. I've heard from a lot of the different whistleblowers over the years. My recommendation is to do the best you can to spoof and obfuscate your online data as much as possible. If they want your info, at least give them some hassle and waste their time finding it. Thats my opinion.
Nathan Collins
I respect your opinion
my opinion is: obfuscation and spoofing don't have any efficacy whatsoever, and since ALL data is collected en masse and autonomously, it's not a hassle or a waste of time for them at all.
my analogy : that's like thinking that if you paint a pebble the same color as the road, the street sweeper will become confused, and it will waste it's time searching for your pebble.
All hail the great machine. The machine is all. The machine is one. No one may challenge the great machine.
(can someone please unplug this machine?)
Thomas King
But you miss the obvious factor: all those pebbles sweeped up are one HUGE fucking load of pebbles. Even though they "sweep it up" they still have to dig through a TONNAGE to find your pebble. And if they don't know what to look for (what real color, what real size, etc.) then that can still be a difficult fucking job!
Adam Rogers
That's like thinking if you painted your beach house, camouflaging it to look like a giant box of macaroni, the hurricane would have to 'hassle and waste it's time' trying to find your house.
Hurricanes destroy things whereas the NSA wants to *save things* and then studies them or stores them for later use. Thats A LOT different. So put it this way, its like placing a needle in a hay stack and painting that needle light yellow to blend in with all the hay.
Camden Martin
no sir, allow me to explain
the NSA's multitude (it's not just one) of surveillance programs are about COLLECTING ALL THE PEBBLES TOGETHER, then storing them in very well organized folders
they carefully log WHERE each pebble was swept up, WHEN, and which pebbles it was associated with.
that way, whenever they need to, they can go back, retrieve the pebble, and engage in RETROACTIVE INVESTIGATION.
that's the way 99% of their operation functions…
The other 1% (the real-time surveillance) is what they refer to as IRONCLAD status
Ethan Kelly
That's how it became more than obvious that the whole Cezar Sayoc thing was a deep state bullshit campaign. No stickers on his van a few months ago. As in, none. Also, lifelong regustered Democrat. Also, followed many harcore leftists, including Obama, on Twitter. Did not follow Trump. Hmmm…
Jackson Sanchez
the hurricane analogy wasn't so much meant to focus on the 'destruction' versus the 'storage & management'
my point was: the hurricane isn't searching for individual houses
it just sweeps everything up into it's enormous overwhelming 'engine'
Angel Torres
not sure where you got your (mis)information
but it's wrong
Logan Rodriguez
Prove it.
Jayden Cooper
Weirdly, he is correct.
Cooper Jones
I just recently saw a video of his van a few months ago and it had the stickers on it…..
And by the way, those aren't 'stickers'
Those are large one piece vinyl decals, which he paid to have printed at a sign shop, printed with a Roland digital inkjet printer onto Gerber™ ScotchCal vinyl, just like any FedEx Kinko's or any other sign shop will print out for you.
The vinyl was printed from original digital files he had supplied, montaged on a computer at a Florida Library, and he also had the exact same Graphics printed onto a t-shirt which he wore to the Trump rallies….
People talk about the van being mysteriously 'repainted' all of the sudden, but there's nothing mysterious about him having his van repainted….
After all, he was living in his van, and it's the only thing he owned… After being kicked out of his mother's house, he might as well have done some spring cleaning and is disgusting fucking van, oops, I mean condominium….
Apparently, you haven't seen the body cam video where the police were called out to his van to investigate a report of a suspicious man sleeping in a parking lot
The first thing the officers did was notice the bizarre vinyl decals all over his van, and when they woke him up in his driver seat, they sarcastically asked him, "so it looks like you're a trump fan, huh?"
There is no false flag or grand conspiracy behind this nutcase…..

Brandon Allen
CIA/FBI Niggers: Ok Mr. Nologs VPNs, we want you to start logging all these users and not notify them that you are doing it. If you don't we'll fuck your VPN business in the ass without lube.
Piracy has to move to the dark nets. It's too risky to engage in piracy in the clear net. VPNs are a false sense of security–it's for fools. Don't listen to VPN shills. You goys know not to trust the jews right?
That video has nothing to do with this thread at all. By the way, those pipe bombs were fake, whether or not the bomber knew that or not I have no clue and neither do you. Could have been set up by the FBI as a sting operation to do what he did, who the fuck knows?
If you want to take the risk using your own IP go right ahead. I'm not risking that shit, ever. So far as I know my private VPN provider has a clean record, however not all of them do. So its up to you to do your research and what kinds of options you choose.
Asher Sanders
Did this user send anything to me yet? I'm going to check by the end of the day, maybe sooner. If your for real and know who the fuck I am, prove it by sending that info to me: [email protected]
Dylan Williams
If (You) ever learn the difference between your and you're, maybe I will.. Ask Neptune.. It could take awhile, but it will be worth it..
within 30 minutes of being arrested, Sayoc told the FBI that the 'bombs weren't wired to explode' and that he 'didn't want to injure anyone'.
However, the devices DID contain an explosive gunpowder….
they simply weren't WIRED completely
the detonator wiring wasn't connected
doesn't matter
it's domestic terrorism

Look, either you have the info or your bluffing. If you have it, you can prove that to me by sending it to the email. Its hard to believe you or take you seriously if you won't do that.

Justin Adams
If you're serious about proving your OPSEC, big boy, then just make unironic threats against the President's life ITT or an admission to possession of CP, or a threat to blow up a federal building, or a promise to shoot up a public place with location and time, etc. Put your money where your mouth is, player.
Ayden Smith
I just checked that email and nothing is in there yet. Did I call your bluff or are you going to prove you are not lying?
OK, so the answer is NO. You have nothing on me, you just claim you do, and claim you know who I am, and claim your into doxing and hacking, but are not. Sorry, thats my conclusion now until you prove otherwise.
Kevin Perry
I'm not that user. I was simply challenging you to put your OPSEC to the test if you really think no one can find you. If you do any of the suggestions here I can personally guarantee that you will be located and arrested. Are you game to play?
Bentley Hill
I thought about it but its a bit too high a risk. If I ever did that I'd take extraordinary precautions beyond what I do now. Perhaps sometime I should, just to check out what happens (I'd have myself a fail-safe encase I ever got caught just to prove I was only joking around though).
