I bet you didn't get one of those fancy lawyer letters which start with :

Dear DMCA Agent:

We are writing this letter on behalf of Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. ("Warner Bros."). We have received information that an individual has utilized the below-referenced IP address at the noted date and time to offer downloads of copyrighted motion picture(s) through a "peer-to-peer" service.
And the rest of the letter is about taking actions against you

The distribution of unauthorized copies of copyrighted motion pictures constitutes copyright infringement under the Copyright Act, Title 17 United States Code Section 106(3).  This conduct may also violate the laws of other countries, international law, and/or treaty obligations.


Since you own this IP address, we request that you immediately do the following:

1) Disable access to the individual who has engaged in the conduct described
above; and
2) Take appropriate action against the account holder under your Abuse Policy/Terms of Service Agreement.

On behalf of Warner Bros., owner of the exclusive rights to the copyrighted material at issue in this notice, we hereby state, that we have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by Warner Bros., its respective agents, or the law.

Also, we hereby state, under penalty of perjury, under the laws of the State of California and under the laws of the United States, that the information in this notification is accurate and that we are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive rights being infringed as set forth in this notification.

Please direct any end user queries the following.

BIG NAME

Well , some ISP act right away upon receiving this letter and cut you off Internet. Some may even react to more extent and this would be my strong advice : Don’t get caught!
