How do you stop BitTorrent from uploading?
FAQYou can't. You could hack BitTorrent, but remember that how much you upload affects your download speed. So if you don't upload your download speeds will suffer and you will also destroy the BitTorrent community. Remember: if nobody uploads, nobody can download.
I don't want BitTorrent stealing my bandwidth! How can I stop it from uploading?
BitTorrent/FAQ - AnarchopediaYou could hack the source to not upload, but then your download rate would suck. BitTorrent downloaders engage in tit-for-tat with their peers, so leeches have very little success downloading. BitTorrent pre-allocates the entire file when your download begins, then writes in pieces in random order as it gets them. As a result the file jumps to its full size immediately. BitTorrent will tell you when the download is complete.
Why do seeders stop uploading?
BitTorrent/FAQ - AnarchopediaIf they see that the "upload" area is constantly at 0 for more than a few hours and decide to spend their processor cycles on more in-demand torrents. Some torrents - such as RedHat Linux will stop being distributed as soon as a new version of RedHat (now called Fedora) appears. It is best to try the torrent a few times at different times of the day and then, if there is no result, assume it is too old to be useful.
BitTorrent says I'm uploading, what files am I sharing? What's being sent?
Blackhole MotorsportsDon't worry. When you are downloading a particular torrent, you are also uploading that torrent at the same time. The parts of the file(s) that you have already downloaded are uploaded to other peers. This is normal, and it's how the protocol works. There is no "shared directory" setting as with other peer-to-peer applications.
Why not BitTorrent?
Internet Archive Frequently Asked QuestionsBitTorrent is good and similar to FreeCache in that it balances download "horizontically". BitTorrent uses other BitTorrent clients for this balancing; these clients often become un-available after a particular file is not popular anymore. The FreeCache system utilizes permanent FreeCaches that don't go away (although particular files get flushed out after a while). Unlike BitTorrent, the FreeCache system is transparent to the end-user.

How do I enable uploading?
Manual:FAQ - MediaWikiFile uploads are an often-used feature of MediaWiki, but are disabled by default in all current release versions. To enable them, first make the upload directory (default images) writable by the web server (chmod 777 or allow the Apache user to write to it, etc.) then set $wgEnableUploads to true in LocalSettings.php (i.e. "$wgEnableUploads = true;"). See Manual:Configuring file uploads for more information.
What is uploading?
Transtopia -- FAQUploading (sometimes called 'mind uploading' or 'brain reconstruction') is the hypothetical process of transferring a mind from a biological brain to an artificial substrate -- a highly advanced computer. The idea is that after scanning the synaptic structure of a brain, we could implement the same computations on an electronic medium that would normally take place in the neural network of the brain.
What should I know about 'ripping' and uploading?
TuneCore: FAQHowever you normally store your music (on a compact disk, on reel-to-reel tape, on a cassette, on vinyl record, etc.), the most common way to get it into your computer is to "rip" it, or as Apple says, "Import." Ripping almost always begins with a regular audio CD placed in the disk drive in your computer, then software like iTunes is told to "import" or "rip" the songs.
How do I allow uploading of additional formats?
Manual:FAQ - MediaWikiMediaWiki requires that allowed file upload formats are specified using the $wgFileExtensions configuration directive. Usually this directive is situated in LocalSettings.php in the root of your MediaWiki installation. Note: The syntax is different to allow uploading of more than one type of file. To do so, use an array as in the example below which will allow uploading of png, gif, jpg, jpeg, pdf, and txt files.
