Love the ISP Complaint page - just a couple of minor points (rentry.co)

First post! Looking forward to getting involved as I move away from deddit....

Great to see the ISP Complaint page just have a couple of suggestions / corrections

  1. An ISP would have little incentive to arrest their subscribers

Nobody thinks an ISP has the power to arrest anyone.....

  1. Suggest addition of 'debrid' solution to the 'how can I avoid complaints' part

You have seedboxes and DDLs in there, but Debrid solutions offer agreat way of using both. The main debrid sites let you

  • Add torrents safely and turn them to DDLs (like a Seedbox)
  • Bypass filelocker limits on speed and number of DLs
  • Can be used with services like Stremio to give you higher quality streaming links that are precached - which means no torrenting, no buffering and of coure, no risk of getting caught.
  1. Maybe add something about 'fines' - lots of people mistaken think their ISP can fine them. This is just not true. Only a court, or in some places the police, can issue penalty fines. There is no country in the world that allows ISPs to fine its customers.

I think that point could be reworded along the lines of 'ISPs won't report you to the police for pirating content'. I've talked to people who were worried about being arrested because they received a DMCA letter from their ISP
