ANO NGA BA ITONG SI TORRENT NA TO??
Hanggang ngayon marami pa din po ang hindi nakakaalam kung ano ba talaga ang torrent na yan.
Marami sa atin lagi natin nababasa yan sa mga logs ng vpn na bawal mag torrent.
Ano nga ba ito? At bakit pinagbabawal ang torrent?
Mahaba po ang mga paliwanag tungkol dito pero susubukan ko pong ipaliwang ng mas maikli at mas maliwanag.
Ang word na “torrent” in the tech world, it usually refers to a computer file that contains metadata holding various information.
A torrent file normally comes with the extension .torrent but it does not contain the actual contents to be distributed.
This information will then be used by a BitTorrent software such as uTorrent, Transmission or BitTorrent for the “real” distribution – which essentially allows for users to easily download torrent files to their personal computers.

Yes tama po ang pagkakabasa nyo . We are getting files from other computers . Kasi si torrent gumagamit ng peer to peer connection .

Paano gumagana si torrent?

In short, a torrent file acts as the key to initiate downloading of the actual content. When someone is interested in receiving a shared file (i.e. books, music, documents, etc.), they must first obtain the corresponding torrent file – by either downloading the .torrent file directly or by using a magnet link.

A BitTorrent software is then required to open this file/link. Once the BitTorrent software scans the torrent file/link, it’ll then need to find the locations of seeders which are sharing the corresponding file. To do so, it will attempt to connect to a list of defined trackers (from the torrent file metadata) and attempt a direct connection. If it’s successful, the appropriate content will then begin transferring.

Why is torrenting dangerous?

Downloading torrents can always be dangerous due to the fact that other peers will be able to see your IP address. Lots of production and record companies hire people to go in and report all these IP addresses being found downloading torrents so that they can be passed along to ISPs. The ISPs will then liaise with law enforcement agencies to prevent the file from being downloaded further, which may include incarcerating the operators or users.

So dito pa lang pag nadetect ng mga “FILE OWNERS” ang ip address ng mga nag aaccess ng files nila , irereport nila ito agad.
Pag nireport na yun na yun nakakatay na agad mga ip’s . Kaya sa mga nag sshare ng vpn servers laging paalala na bawal mag torrent!

Legal ba o îllégâl si torrent?

Torrent itself is legal .
BUT the files with “copyrighted materials” that you downloaded via torrent is îllégâl.
