If KTF has such "really good" service in English, why could they not have found someone - ANYONE - to (a) call me back, or (b) send a msg in English? |
I'm talking about their internet wing. You're talking about their cell phone wing. The four times I've dealt with KT megapass customer service/tech support, the level of English was excellent. |

I just answered the phone saying 'Hangul-mal mulaio' yesterday morning, and about 10 minutes later I got a text saying, "your phone, pay now! 160,000 won or phone nothing! today 4 pm!"
Someone was doing their job well. |

| Given the governor of California is one of the Republicans golden boys, I'd say the Tor and I2P networks will be 'safe' to use for as long as it takes them to become popular, at which point you'll see the following headlines: "Government sources claim al-Quaeda uses Tor and I2P" and "Movie piracy investigated on terrorist networks". Of course, the evidence of this will never be revealed, which won't stop the US government from making logging into them illegal. |

The Patriot Act has just got to be in there somewhere as well. The current gov't must have realized that to get into people's files (which they do, very much want to do and have been granted license to do), they will need a key, or at least a back door that is always unlocked. This, and what with MS having a virtual stranglehold on the OS market...well....deals may have been struck in some back room. "Vista" alright....but who gets the view?

Just for everyone's fun information. The US Army secure servers run Mac OS X Server and some operational computers are Linux.
Of course, I'm just "hypothesizing" I have no real, first hand information from when I was an Army officer involved in Chem/Bio counterterror. Like I said, I'm just passing "fiction" along. Just for speculative and informational purposes only.  |

One need not run Windows to gain access to a Windows-based system. In some ways, it may be more beneficial not to. |

So are there networks for downloading that *are* difficult and/or impossible to monitor?
I'm just curious for theoretical reasons. |

Sometimes I wonder more if they make these calls not because they REALLY got pressed by anyone, but because the customer was an excessive downloader, using gigabytes of bandwidth, and so then the ISP says "Hey lets check it out, OH he's downloading something from a torrent" and call them up and say "Yeah your downloading illegal stuff, stop or you'll get sued, THIS time though they won't sue you, if you promise to stop that is..
I mean, if a company was serious about sueing you, having your ISP say "hey please stop" isn't going to placate them.. It's a scare tactic.
EDIT:
But perhaps there is SOME truth to the situation.. I think its ISP's caving in to threats to sue giving you 1 or 2 or 3 strikes before they cancel your account, but for those worried, a certain popular site for downloading torrents has a fake torrent finder where you can enter any torrent file and it will check it against a list of known fake torrents and trackers that are really just monitoring IP addresses. |

Just do your downloading in the pc room
In one hour you can download one movie or several simultanously
I do it all the time because they have the best internet speed |
How do you get internet in a Pc Bang when your laptop can't get on the internet? Do I just unhook the internet cable and plug it into my laptop? |
