Responses will vary... Some will redirect your DNS to get you to a website to notify you, others may interrupt service in other ways.  Some will forward the email/notification with a very stern warning.  Some cable companies will permanently disconnect service if you see 3 notifications in a given timeframe.

A seedbox is the best option, ideally in a country that doesn't legally recognize US copyright like Amsterdam.  Although it's not necessarily the cheapest option.  They just throw the notifications away, not forward/redirect them to you.
