People who don’t care that they are being spied on/ having their data harvested by facebook, instagram, whatsapp, google, amazon, oracle etc… are the same ones who pirate without a vpn or i2p. I can’t stand this “so what if they have my data?” attitude. You ask anyone if they would feel comfortable leaving their car unlocked in town, or the front door of their house open at night and theeen they suddenly care about privacy and security.
Piracy is a crime. It might be the most common and socially acceptable (right after not fully stopping at an empty stop street), but it is still technically illegal and the govt can go after you any time they want to.
Please please please do not go around advertising your cam-quality bootlegs.
Caring is sharing, it is not a crime to share things unless there is an economic profit
i think(?) it still is. (not that that should matter :)
Not in my country. To be a crime it have to be an economic profit. You can share and download music/ tv shows/movies, but not sell it. Software is out. This is it because you pay in advance a tax when you buy an electronic device in case you download a thing.
Canada is really good for piracy. The only thing that is illegal about piracy is the distribution. So as long as you don’t seed without a VPN you will have no legal issues. But ISPs do seem to throttle my internet connection when ever I accidentally torrent without a VPN
Using a commercial VPN does not “hide” your data, it makes it available to a different party. Sometimes this is still useful, like when your ISP has a monoply and is overtly hostile to what you’re doing with your internet connection, or you just want a simple bypass for region blocking. But for a lot of people it’s lateral move or maybe even a downgrade considering the added latency and that many VPN services are also quite shady.
Please ignore BS in original post and advertize more of your cam-quality bootlegs. We need more links other than already known dimeadozen!
Well. In driving school we learned that leaving your car unlocked is illegal. It’s a 15€ fine.
Wow. Certainly not a global law, thankfully
True. However afaik it’s because otherwise some stupid 5 yo kids can get into cars and roll over their siblings if they manage to release the parking brake. And because nobody wants to clean that up, they made it illegal to leave your car unlocked. I don’t know if there are more reasons. I don’t like too many regulations, but i kind of get this one.
“Think of the children” classic.
Personally I leave my car unlocked because the most valuable thing in there is the windows, and I don’t want someone busting them open just to find nothing and foot me the bill.
I don’t have a problem with them not using a VPN as long as they seed. I would personally use a seedbox
are the same ones who pirate without a vpn or i2p
you’re goddamn right im not sure what i2p is tho
Here I am again, to introduce briefly the i2p protocol to those filthy pirates that haven’t heard of it.
I2P is a protocol, a peer to peer one, where computers are nodes and create a secret internal internet, like tor but without clearnet access and ip addresses. One of the uses for it is torrenting, since there are no ip’s or port forwarding involved.
Hey OP, how does your cold take adapt to countries like Croatia, in which piracy is legal?
