@PurrJPro @jordank1977 The thing is, VPNs create enough friction for authorities to stop them from tracking you down for downloading a movie.
Also, in some countries it's not even authorities catching you torrent stuff, it's asshole lawyers who basically bounty hunt for media companies. It's only viable for them to screw over hundreds of people at once, they're unlikely to try and argue with a VPN provider.
@hyperio The great thing is, I don't even have to sign up. I just follow this sub (do you still call it a sub?) from my #Mastodon!
Ahh, bless the #Fediverse.
@will_iam90983402984 I remember hearing something about the state of Switch emulation in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQmN-cxg21M
@Hcbille @Campsite6926 While you're right, you're also wrong. The DHT allows for these torrents to be found still, but it's less effective than a tracker.
@lostwonder Does #libreddit count? Then yes.
