(Of course I’m going to stop, but my server has been blocked by Hetzner, would like to recover it XD)
You quietly comply. Then take tougher security measures to protect yourself before continuing. Do not respond under any circumstances. If you’re served with actual legal papers, retain an attorney.
Ah yes, The company named “Company”.
That’s just how legalese is written. It’s like variables in programming they tell you what the thing is and then they tell you what they’re going to call it for the rest of the document.
I guess it originally saved them hand writing “B&H Film, Video and Television Media Production LLC” every time. Of course these days you could just do a fine and a replace, so I’m not sure why they don’t, but it’s just become standard lawyer at this point.
Just do what they asked you to do. Remove the torrents, it’s not like they are threatening legal action. They are actually asking pretty nicely.
In the future, use a VPN.
Given that it’s Hetzner, there’s not much you can do besides telling them “oops sorry didn’t know this was illegal” and proceed using a VPN on your seedbox, go private tracker or just use a different hoster. Hetzner isn’t a big fan of torrenting since they have the (german) feds in their neck.
I’ve had a few of these. They can really get the heart racing but I was always too chicken shit to even do anything. Nothing ever came of it.
