For now...
No need to risk your savings over Avengers Endgame 4K...
I’ve been doing it for almost 10 years. I know what I am doing. I have several layers of security.
If you however are a tech illiterate then of course you’ll get fined. I have friends who got fined too.
Would it be possible to reveal what you did to increase security?
I always (want to) try to improve mine.
I have two containers, qBittorrent and the VPN:
You also have to know that these scummy law firms use honey pot attacks, where they advertise themselves as leechers and record your IP if you upload to them. Technically a proxy to another country would just be enough here, but hey, this works too and I sleep better.
Since you use a torrent container and a vpn container I am interested in how you manage to communicate with the torrent container.
Do you utilize the *arr stack? Also with a docker?
If the answer is yes, how did you achieve the communication between the containers?
Reason I am asking is, that I want to connect to my other container but when I bind my container to the service I am unable to let it communicate directly with it.
By that logic, I'd need to access the container through the vpn container, right? (*arr <-> vpn container <-> downloader container)
You have to expose the qbt http port in your VPN container. All API communication (arrs etc) goes through here.
After much thinking I managed it myself and found that out as well. What I also needed was the environment variable
FIREWALL_OUTBOUND_SUBNETS
so my other containers could connect to the container.
