i downloaded some movies and tv series from kickass and extratorrent. next thing ya know they sent me a letter that i had to erase those downloaded files or i will be fined and they will stop the service.
I'd look at competitors in your area if I was you. F#ck all these cats trying to control the internet. The more money mfers keep giving them the sh^t like this you can expect.
But yea this is becoming more of a thing with various companies.
In my area, you're only allowed to pick one service provider depending what part of town you stay in, so you can't shop around.
I have Spectrum (formally Time Warner) and they did the same to me when I downloaded torrents. They didn't really threaten me like that exactly, they just sent me a warning basically saying I'm allowed two more strikes before they enforce disciplinary action which could include a fine or suspension of service

I had a few of those from them.
The best solution to avoid your service being suspended, is to use a VPN when downloading torrent or get a seedbox for the ultra in privacy.

I got that notice for downloading an episode of a show once. Something I downloaded from a public tracker like kickass. I never received a notice on anything I got from private trackers. Tell them you deleted it and try to avoid public trackers.

Mine was about a year ago. I believe it has more to do with what you download. Some networks and record companies pursue downloads and put more pressure on the cable companies than others. For example, HBO does not pursue downloaders of boxing as much as TNT does basketball or NBC does it's shows. They put pressure on public trackers to reveal IP addresses and our cable companies send us notices.

one of the movie that was flagged was Hitman's Bodyguard.
