If you're gonna do this stuff always always always use a VPN, and not a free VPN. Honestly I use a VPN for literally everyhing. My two mobile phones and 3 PCs and a home server. If I can't get to a site because they block VPNs then fuck them I'll spend my money somewhere else.
What are good VPNs to use?

Re: Popcorn Time Is Back
#122Given some of the people here might run their own servers, the self-hosted alternative is to have something like Sonarr PVR for newsgroups and torrents, alongside a tracker indexer like Jackett, and then Plex for the frontend. In this combination, you "subscribe" to TV shows and select movies on the Sonarr system, and then the downloading is taken care for you even when new episodes arrive. These will then appear on…

the UK would be a good example of what they're referring to. in the UK there's absolutely no enforcement of consumer internet piracy laws whatsoever
Wait. Is this true? As in they have laws they just don't enforce them?
> As we said earlier, such campaigns don’t have a terribly strong history of success in the UK. The courts have also previously warned such firms to be very careful about the use of threatening language, given that those being targeted are not yet proven to be guilty of what they are accused.

...most IPS in most contries are just OK with piracy ...use proper VPNs for stuff that needs real security, enjoy your entertainment in peace (sure, if you're into weird kinds of pr0n). Most ppl who occasionally pirate also pay for content and have Netflix substrictions and stuff anyway (most artists do get payed - or at least some company gets paid for their work...), and those who don't would just pirate anyway, ju…

I'd love a writeup or a guide.
Best I can do is share my Compose files :) https://gist.github.com/1player/dbdafdd197e1623f5831108fc0cc... It's pretty simple overall: gluetun is the VPN container, qBittorrent runs inside of it and downloads torrents, Jackett is a torrent search aggregator, Sonarr&Radarr use Jackett+qBittorrent to download movies and TV shows when they release, Bazarr adds subtitles after the fact. Everything goes into a media direc…

My local ISP uses CGNAT so I guess that page lists what my neighbors are downloading. So many porns.
It's not really an ISP if it uses CGNAT. It's more of a web service provider. And it's not like you (or your neighbors) can participate in p2p protocols anyway if you don't have a routable IP address and ports.

Well, there is. You usually get a redirect to a website that says THIS HAS BEEN BLOCKED BY THE HIGH COURT or some shit. and then at that point you find the other domain that isn't, or just type in the IP. It's all very shallow
Re: Popcorn Time Is Back
#129This looks like apks and no desktop apps, is that accurate? I’ll never forget the warm cozy feeling I got when my isp sent me a letter listing the the movies I had pirated over popcorn time.
