IF you go down that route, there needs to be a warning: Do it properly, use a VPN if you are torrenting, get a usenet account if you want fast speeds that encrypts the connection and so on - basically, teach it correct. Because some countries or rather law agencies WILL hunt you down if they even get some hint of your actual IP-Address...

Or they send a DMCA to your ISP, and then your ISP gives you 3 warnings and a boot. VPN is the way.

Yeah. I've only really got one ISP option at my house that isn't DSL.
