Can colleges see what you download on limewire??

Im living on campus and i wonder if they can see everything i download?


Answers: The neither own the time nor the desire to know. It's not impossible, it's only just naive.

They will see excessive usage however, and if you don't properly protect yourself (limiting others who download, removing explicitly private content etc.) you may train up one sent a cute notification that say stop record sharing if not.

Please transcribe, as an on campus resident using college resources, you're internet access is a privilege, and one that they can revoke lacking bring.

Simple rule of thumb be smart and everyone have a nice morning. Abuse it, and they will be more than glad to turn over your signature, address, phone number, and every other piece of information the copyright holder requests.
yes they can and do hold on to logs. It's to maintain them from getting into decriminalized trouble if the RIAA or MPAA comes looking to their IP address. It's also not banned for them to do so, you are agreeing to definite expressions when you hook up to their exchange cards, one of those vocabulary is for them to log your internet traffic.
I'm suprised you can even use limewire still. Most university hold blocked adjectives P2P programs because they use so much bandwidth. consider yourself lucky.
