(Of course I’m going to stop, but my server has been blocked by Hetzner, would like to recover it XD)

    We are requesting your immediate assistance in removing and disabling access to the infringing material from your network. We also ask that you ensure the user and/or IP address owner refrains from future use and sharing of Company materials and property.

    Do that. Take whatever torrents they detected offline and don’t torrent those media again from that machine. Unless you want to lawyer up and fight them, of course; this isn’t a court order, it’s a mere cease and desist. You’d be stupid to try and fight them, of course.

    If you want to keep your seedbox, make sure nobody can detect your illegal activities. Switching to a VPN seems prudent.

    Hosting pirated content on a German platform seems awfully risky to me. The German media actually sues random torrenters. I don’t know if they do it outside Germany, but you’ll make your life a lot easier if you install a VPN so you don’t get detected.

      If you still want to seed that exact torrent, at least wipe the trackers. They are 100% connected to the trackers in that torrent to pull IP addresses so they can do this shit.

      Next time, use an IP filter list to pre-block these people.
