major crack down on limewire users?
 

hey will about a month ago our news station NBC, did a little story on major crackdown on limewire users. this REALLY REALLY freaked me out, and then like a week ago my uncle game telling me to STOP using limewire because he said im going to get cought.

I have no idea what to do, should i quit using limewire? if not what should i do to not be one of those people that gets cought, because they charge your $200 for every single song u downloaded of limewire, and my family could NEVER EVER afford that, we are poor...

what do you guys think i should do?

I would say, do what is best for you and your family.

but that didnt help at all lol

i want to know if its really possible to find out if im using limewire, and if they can how can i reduce the chances, also if this is true or just a scare tactic

It's not illegal to have LW It's a matter of what you DL with it.

ahhh really?
ok then i see thats good

So if you download songs, movies, or anything else that you can buy at your local walmart, its illegal

ummm....

what legal things ar eon limewire?

anything that's not copyright protected some people put there own content on LW to share to others but you don't know if it was intended to be shared quite a delima it is.

I am sorry that my hint told you nothing, perhaps the following story will help you. This lady obviously did not think about her family before continuing with her activities now her wages could be garnished for the rest of her life.
