<p>So I am used to working with torrents a lot, as it is easier to find what you're looking for (especially if you live in a very small country like me) </p>
<p>I would like to know if it is allowed to use torrents and programs like utorrent/bittorrent at Lafayette College? What is the policy? Are there penalties for students using P2P networks?</p>
<p>Thanx</p>
<p>anyone???</p>

<p>Torrents and P2P’s are technically illegal in the United States (and technically illegal in almost every country in the world including yours I’m sure). It’s essentially piracy of music / softwars / movies / whatever you’re downloading.
It’s a fact that people still use it and use it often but using a torrent or a P2P is at your own risk and there is a chance that you will be facing prosecution. Be aware of that.</p>
