Does PG2 actually work?
« on: October 02, 2007, 08:42:02 am »
I've seen many threads in many different forums saying that PG2 doesn't work and that they got "the email" even though they had their lists updated... etc.

Does anyone have a way of proving that it can actually prevent the anti-piracy tards from proving that you've downloaded something?

Thanks

More likely than not, it doesn't work. If anything, it'll provide you with a false sense of security that'll get you in trouble in the end.

The reason is, most companies don't advertise their honeypots. And when people know where the honeypots lie, they're moved. As a result, you can't really block them.

I apply the same logic to piracy that I do to speeding on the highway: if there's someone on the road going faster than me, I won't draw cops' attention.
