If your country persecutes individual piracy. Mine doesn't.
Our ISP sends 3 strike letters :(
That is supposedly the case in Australia as well but I haven't got a letter from telstra since around 2004 and I have never used a VPN and watch all my shows and movies via torrents so either I'm extremely lucky or they stopped bothering.
Though recently I started paying the $4 / month for Real Debrid for better streaming performance, which is just as good as a VPN for torrent anonymity. I used to be fundamentally against the idea of paying anything to pirate but honestly this is worth it, I've even been able to watch a few shows that had 0 seeders because they were previously cached.

Yeah, if you don't mind it possibly taking a week to download something... Really like the idea, but in practice it's very slow for something like that, unless you got a lot of seeders for something maybe.
has it gotten any better since 100 years ago or whenever I was a kid?
Instructions unclear, VPN'd into my own home network.
Even Haru's billionaire ass can't afford all these subscriptions 😭
Who is the original artist?
Not sure about the artist, but these are characters from the game Persona 5 (Haru and Futaba)
Okay, thanks!
@negglartz on that place Elongated Musksticles ruined
A VPN is just essentially a change in ISP.
importantly it's (hopefully) an ISP that operates from a less copyright-happy country and isn't tied down to tons of expensive infrastructure and long-term contracts
Isn't torrenting legal in the Netherlands?
And please don't use anime girls to refer to every fucking thing in the world
I mean this is Persona 5 and this is 100% what Futaba would say and do
And make sure it's a VPN that supports port forwarding. Sharing is caring.
or just use Usenet.
I use Comcast VPN cheaper than mullvad /s
Nah, Verizon VPN is better
i never hav to use one lmao
Please explain..
ukraine, poland, no-one cares abt it here :p
do i want to be her or date her?
I thought you don't need a VPN for things like usenet
If your provider supports SSL and you actually turn it on then no technically don't need a VPN for Usenet.
this is dangerous advice. courts can still subpoena the usenet provider for your information.
I guess, that depends on the legislative of your country, maybe they see all interactions with usenet providers as illegal, and if you are not using a VPN they see what IP you talk to. But in the other hand, in such countries, using (foreign) VPNs may also be illegal🤔
Your ISP sees the connection to news.usenetserver.com and if they cared could get a court order to get your data from them. They can compel you to release your username and password.
You also need to protect yourself against future law and enforcement
Meh my Usenet provider also partners with a VPN provider. Still costs me £5 a month for the VPN but I may as well use it, I like having a VPN
IP law firms tried to get their cases into my country and they only got a 50% success rate on court so they stopped trying (cost benefit thing I suppose).
Also private trackers in my country do not allow the use of VPN (why do they care IDK, they say it is to have more control on who join), so there's little point on getting a VPN for piracy here.

it's probably for IP banning or something. Whitelist authorization, something silly like that.
It's important to note that a VPN is simply somebody else's network in another location.
