The best thing to do is download from any network, including your home one. Scared you'll get caught? run it through an anonymous proxy and they'll never find you xD



For avoiding ISP's, you need to google it- I think emule has an option for that

No. a central authority shouldn't legislate approximately how human beings gown, and if somebody outfits in accordance with how they experience they could guidance their faith this could be respected. So if we reject a ban on lady Islamic gown which covers the face we could constantly uphold the lady's fabulous to placed on it which we can't erode by skill of watching the practicalities something yet rationally. it is the place it may become slightly complicated if we blur the distinctive subject concerns between banks and airports. Checking identity at airports, as in faculties and places of artwork for occasion, might nicely be certainly finished and there are usual techniques for it, so the face veil would not could be 'banned' at airports. places like banks and shops are diverse, the undertaking there is not any longer a pair of own identity verify, yet that the clothing could be used as a cover by skill of criminals, so the possibility factor ought to be weighed up sensibly against upholding the lady's fabulous to placed on it. besides the reality that there have been one or 2 instances of 'burquas' being mis-used in this way they're in all probability uncommon adequate to no longer over-react to. If a girl chooses to placed on a face veil in public for non secular motives she will have the flexibility to no longer be experience waiting to get rid of it to pass right into a financial business enterprise interior the comparable way somebody can get rid of a motor cycle helmet. we will not have it the two techniques, we can't be a 'liberals, yet........'
