I don't want BitTorrent stealing my bandwidth! How can I stop it from uploading?

BitTorrent/FAQ - Anarchopedia
You 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. See similar questions...

Some clients allow you to adjust the rate at which data is being uploaded to other clients. However there's little point in doing this, since other BitTorrent clients determine the amount of data you receive by the rate you upload at. If you don't upload at all, your transfers will slow down to a crawl. See similar questions...

So how do I stop people from stealing my art?

FAQ] Frequently Asked Questions
If you want a 100% guarantee that your work will not be stolen, the best thing to do is never ever exhibit it anywhere. Never hang it in a gallery (people have mobile phone cameras), never give one as a gift or have one printed in a book or magazine (people have scanners), and never put it on the internet. The drawback is that nobody knows who you are, and nobody sees your work. See similar questions...

BitTorrent says I'm uploading, what files am I sharing? What's being sent?

Blackhole Motorsports
Don'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.

Why not BitTorrent?

Internet Archive Frequently Asked Questions
BitTorrent 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. See similar questions...
