Question on VPN's
KasK18:
So, the 6 strikes policy went into effect yesterday in the US. I'm paranoid and I wonder If I should look into getting a VPN connection. Anyone got suggestion on good VPN's? I looked at Hide My Ass and their 1 year deal seems like an nice option, same for bolehvpn. Also, is there any special thing I need to do to make sure my registers my uploads on the private tracker, or does the tracker take care of itself in that regard?
xgraphy:
No, what you should be looking into is a seedbox service. And quite a few providers also give a proxy service (which you shouldn't need).
But the thing is, if you haven't been receiving warnings from your ISP before this policy came into effect for downloading anime, do you even need to hide yourself on the internet?

Just ignore the damn policy. No Law will survives if everyone ignores them :)

As it has been proved repeatedly by the Russian legal system :).

Well, I thought about it overnight and I came to the same conclusion :P....and no, I've never been warned by my ISP, possibly because I only ever seed/download 6 torrents at any one time (7 at the most) and I almost never reach my max upload speeds except for the occasional spike.
I did actually look into seedboxes, but they're fairly expensive per month and I am a broke American college student (a well off one, mind you because of my parents, but broke/not able to afford much on my own). TBH, I actually don't know how they're going to effectively apply the 6 strikes policy as it doesn't seem practical.
