A friend of a friend of mine got a similar email, except it stated their IP, what they were downloading and when.

When they called into rogers they said (paraphrased) "ya we by law have to notify you. I myself download torrents but if it happens a 2nd or maybe a 3rd time we are required to shut off your internet"

The problem is the 'uploading' part of your 'activities' ;)

Technically speaking, while you were BT downloading 'stuff', you were also 'distributing' (uploading/sharing) 'stuff' ... this violates the ISP agreement between Rogers and you.

Yup, I believe you should see the details (file(s), time, IP ... etc) in the same email ...

However, if you don't BT, there's a bigger problem ... someone may be 'sharing' your internet connection wirelessly ...

Hmm, did you put 'enough' of those 'quotes' in there? haha
