UK ISPs are to start sending "educational letters" to customers identified as downloading copyright material without paying for it.

It is part of the UK government's attempt to crack down on piracy.

BT, Virgin Media, TalkTalk and Sky have agreed to send the missives, which will be emailed rather than posted.

Installing a good free VPN will stop your ISP spying on you, Opera have a good free VPN for phones that's a must have if you use free Wi-Fi in cafes and while traveling.

They also have their Opera Browser for Windows/Mac/Linux which includes the VPN plus an Adblocker :link: PC Browser | Fast, Safe & Free Browser for Windows | Opera
