I live in Osaka for 8 years now. Along that time I frequently used torrent to download everything from movies (AV, anime, etc), books, games. I know it’s illegal but never get any warning so I thought they don’t care with 1 person and they don’t have time to sue or charge only 1 person.
Turns out last year I got letter from ISP to open my account to a copyright owner. And after couple of months I got huge fine that I need to pay. In the end I paid all the fine with help from my family member.
And last week I got another letter from ISP, same things but different copyright owner company. It really scared me actually. I don’t say I don’t want to pay. I know I’m on the wrong side so I do want to settle everything with good behaviour. But I cannot pay that much plus there’s a possibility another will come with more fines.
I read something with same cases in Reddit also but if anyone have any advice like how to get much lower fine, it really helps.
Or if anyone can share their experiences.
PS: please forgive my bad English since English is not my first language.
