Proton is a solid choice, they have awesome plans to bundle it with their email services afaik.
But when it comes to "trust" I also trust my grocery store service, but I like to have the ability to just pay with cash and not have them log me by name each time I enter their store and what I'm looking at while in there, its creepy and unethical and we should not support those services.
Eh your bank just knows you pay for a VPN.
Some of them log your payment credentials, why would you want your VPN provider to have access to your real name and banking details? Even if you are not pirating content, its just creepy allowing them to do that to you.
Unless you have somekind of a weird fetish that you enjoy knowing that when you browse the web you are not alone and being watched lol
Paying with credit cards etc deanonymizes you
I'm not a fan of using crypto as an investment tool, but since I cant pay with cash via the internet crypto is the next best option.
A piracy forum needs to be decentralised and based on FOSS software to be able to have quality content, we are not advertisement friendly lol.
Lemmy is the best option.
If not Lemmy then maybe a discourse forum but that would be even worse for mobile users.
Lemmy will only get better from now on, but tbh I prefer its UI over other alternatives official app.
Use firefox with arkenfox, then you wont have to enable DRM to stream videos
I use a VPN to avoid captivation portals. That alone makes it worth it for me since I can have free internet connection, my ISP just puts a captivation portal instead of just cutting off your internet access.
Not sure about this site specifivally, but my preferred way of getting my scanned books 'out there' is through myanonamouse.net they are a private community of bookworms and after you host your book there other public sites will pick it up asap. A private torrenting community is the safest way to share something that MIGHT be copyrighted, let the ones that share it publicly worry about the rest.
Let Reddit die, they've monetized our content and then spit at our faces, especially at the mods.
Please create a decentralized harbor to share piracy related content. Dont visit this site again.
Thanks!
It's a must have add on, but it's still just an add on, we should know the basics of what's happening behind the scenes to sail the 7 seas.
The reason I posted that is to inspire some of you in creating fancy scripts that can easily do more than just downloading one video.
For news sites I usually first try video downloadhelper addon, then figure what's happening with dev tools. Usually their proprietary players are way worse, but I don't really mess with news sites.
I'd recommend trying gogoanime etc first, then sail the deep waters :)
To do this properly, you need to understand how those websites work.
For the shake of simplicity fellow "pirates", they utilize m3u wiki link
m3u8 99% of the time.You will also need yt-dlp install it if you don't have already
F12NetworkXHR (XMLHttpRequest)m3u8
yt-dlp <your-copied-link>Some may call us pirates, which I find really cool
But the true evil Pirates/criminals are the ones that keep the power to themselves and don't share it with others
Information is the only true power, and it should be free(free as in free speech) for all.
Share your own tips & tricks in the comments if you want!
Recently learned how to downloaded 'protected' content and have to say things are pretty simple when you start learning the basics of how things work.
But its pretty hard to get started with, there is not much content for uploaders, at least that I can find easily. Do you have any recommendations to read on uploading content safely? Metadata etc.
Someone upload this one to sourcehut. I'm really curious to see how Drew will response to DMCA like that
