In the future, the world is in the final years of capitalism. Wars threaten to tear the world asunder. Poverty and disease are rampant in the ever expanding third world. And as the toiling class of the world suffer as never before, the capitalist exploiters will go to any length to expand their wealth and power. Global terrorism is proliferating as the result of the wanton foreign policies of capitalist nations. But, in these dark years of human suffering, a revolution is being organized. A revolution that promises a better world where people can live as equals and share their labor and resources. With more and more breaking under the pressure of a dying system no longer able to support its own expansion, in these, the years of anguish, hope is in the coming revolution....

In leu of all the information i was given on the previous thread on this type of subject, I got a first warning letter in the mail today about copyright infringement, and in a mad dash started doing just about everything within my power to clean up my computers harddrives from anything that could be considered copyright infringement.
However, my personal belief is that you should still be able to download and view anything you want as long as you don't distribute for personal profit and that if you really enjoy the series/movie, you go and purchase it either outright or second hand.
So in light of all this, what can I do to better defend myself in the future and still be able to support such idealogy, without the possibility of loosing my net for good?

Unfortunately for you, any sort of “free” downloading is considered theft on some level. Due to this, many Asian countries (for their history of not respecting copyright laws) are not allowed to participate in even legal downloading.
Bad news, buddy, your totally out of luck. There is little defense or excuse you can give to cover your ass on this one.
Also, simply deleting something off your computer doesn't make it gone forever. Since the invention of personal computers, the memory records everything to a mouse click to a movement in a game. The same applies to files. There are at least 4 or 5 "backdoors" to every computer with which someone can enter your harddrive and get whatever information they want. The only real way to get rid of something completely is to burn the harddrive, literally. Sorry coach!
