Seedboxing

The DMCA was a joke from day one. It is beyond government overreach, because it does things like criminalize fair use and consumer control of their devices. Did you know it makes it illegal to make your own backup or digital copy of a DVD or BluRay? Even if you never share it, the act of breaking the DRM in order to make your archive copy or add it to your digital media library is illegal- and that trumps fair use. You can't unlock a cell phone (anymore) to use it on another carrier. You can't legally jailbreak/root a cell phone in order to use non-sanctioned apps or remove carrier bloatware. You can't legally install a mod chip into a video game console.
Basically the DMCA took away your right to "own" anything. Under the DMCA you pay a 'licensing fee', and the license owner (Sony, Microsoft, Samsung, Motorola, AT&T, Disney, Paramount, etc etc etc) can modify the terms at any time - they can remove features, disable access to content, impose limits, etc etc, anything they want in order to boost their profit margins. You as the poor peon who thought your PS3 would do today everything it did when you forked over $500 for it, are shit out of luck with absolutely no recourse.

And that is precisely why I disagree with what the DMCA has become. I agree with the whole principle behind being able to control profit loss from illegal sharing of otherwise paid content, but to take it to that extent is just ridiculous to say the least.

It didn't "become" anything. That's how it was written from day one. A lot of congressmen got a lot of lobbying money from the RIAA and MPAA to write it that way and pass it.

For $5, that's a nice deal
400GB for $15 is cheaper per GB than 100GB for $5..
Also I believe they are based in the US, and they prohibit seeding copyrighted material in their TOS.. :afr:If you're just a light user, that's a steal. Although you can create your own seedbox for the same price.

Originally, before the bigwigs at the MPAA and RIAA got involved, the DMCA was supposed to be intended as a tool to help curb piracy. Once they got involved as it was written, there were many aspects that were taken way out of context from the original idea behind it that were then somehow passed into law, despite things like the 4th amendment.

Yeah until they rat you out to the MAFIAA and they whack you with a lawsuit, then you'll wish you had paid a little more.. ::) Like I said, there ain't enough tea in China to get me to use a US based seedbox or VPN. And I'd love to know where you could create your own seedbox for that price.

Where does it say that they are located in the US? Did you have a box with seedboxbay?

Seedboxbay is based in Paris, France

"Using the latest hardware located in France and USA."
Seedboxbay is based in Paris, France
No, SOME of the servers are in France. SOME are in the US. More than likely the cheap seedboxes are in the US and the more expensive VPS are in France. Upon doing some research, this company has a few other names, and they don't have very good reputations over at T-I. Reports of horrible support, bad speeds, blatant ripoffs.. One of their alter-agos is ssdapp.com, which is where they actually disclose where their servers are.
Regardless, one should not be using ANY seedbox company that has a TOS that basically says they will rat you out without hesitation.

I have a question..
will it be a problem if my seedbox is based out of my country and i am using my local ip adress and my seedbox to download/upload at the same time? i mean, i have now cca 120 torrents seeding from my seedbox server, and cca 8 torrents seeding on my local pc (and local network ofcourse) … this looks like a two persons from two different countries - but its one. i am using my seedbox only for sharing (uploading) and when i want to watch some movie from here or share some gay movies that i have - then i am doing this directly from my pc, my local network .. could i have some problems with this? i mean, its pitty if i have to stop my seedbox server when i am uploading/downloading something from/to my pc
