Meta’s copyright defense may hinge on court ignorance of torrenting terminology.

It's pretty hard these days to even get some seeding done on most things I look at.

You seed that amputee furry midget porn until it hits 1.0!!! I don't care if it takes all year!

I always seed to 3 on public trackers. Never had any issues getting that ratio.

I rarely even get anyone requesting a single byte, regardless of how long I leave torrents open.

are your network settings good? if using a vpn, are you using port forwarding?

my ratios were bad for a long time as well, but after setting up port forwarding there are no issues reaching a higher than 1 ratio.

It's more about Internet speeds I think. When I download I can almost always get whatever near instantly from hundreds of active seeders. There's simply not enough demand to tax the networks to the point they need to connect to small timers like me, I imagine.
