Being completely new to this, my only experience was downloading garbage from limewire way back when. I’ve read through the megathread and get the gist of what a vpn does and what debriding services do. My thing is, I’ve found usually if it’s too good to be true, it probably isn’t. So if I use the recommended browser and dns settings, have a good vpn, set up kill switches, only download/torrent/stream through a binded vpn connection on trusted sites, is that really all it takes to mostly stay (legally) safe? Is it really that simple? As I understand you don’t really need a vpn if using debrid service, but I’m sure there will be goodies to be had through the vpn regardless.

It hasn't been working since months. Any good alternative or fix? Not a fan of Atom though.

Not shidding on anyone, just remembering everyone there would be nothing to repack if there was nothing cracked on the first place.

Does anyone know about some notion about piracy as a form of economic competition? I remember reading about it, probably here even, but I can't find anything now. It was about a conception of piracy as a form of competition in which in lieu of money one had to acquire stuff through more inconvenient/dangerous operations, and about how it catered towards a sector who would not spend money on the non-pirated product either way.

Maybe I'm mixing multiple things or making something up, but I did not hallucinate all of it, so does anyone have a link or info about something like this?

I only noticed once I realized the filter function was very off and broke the site, by this point I already downloaded a few torrents.

I only downloaded courses but are these files safe or would it be best to delete them? In all honesty I’m not sure which ones are from the clone site and I’d have to track my browsing history to make sure. I haven’t opened any of these files yet but I’m still worried there is some malware on them; nothing would be able to execute without me opening it, right?

An r/madmen user reported that Netflix made an episode of Mad Men unavailable because it has a depiction of blackface.

For those who aren't aware, Mad Men is set in the 1960s in the USA, and said depiction of blackface is meant to be seen in a negative light, criticised by other characters. Worst even, said episode is very important in the narrative, for it establishes important main characters for plots that follow it.

Yet, instead of censoring one scene (which would have already been bad on its own), they decided to remove the whole episode altogether.

At this point I'm starting to wonder if even the purchase of DVDs/Blurays in the future will be affected by this kind of blind censorship.

Original Title: Since I dont subscribe to streaming services, I feel I am missing out on some actually good direct-to-streaming movies and TV series. Anybody got some good suggestions on what we may be missing out on?

Some people keep telling about "Oh this Apple TV movie is good!" or "You're missing out on this Netflix series", but I have no idea what has been coming out over the last few years on streaming services since most direct to streaming things aren't really advertised all that much, at least not that I've seen. What are some good ones that people have been watching?

I started to notice that some political content creators and news outlets have segments marked as "Transitions" when those are clearly not transitions but news or jokes on some situations or politicians fromm like Venezuela, Mexico or Cuba.

This amazing tools is being misused for blatant censorship, and the real transitions are being left there making what's left of some videos really short and full of sponsor and transitions (literally blocking content but leaving unblocked what the tool is originally designed to block).

Seems like the voting button is not doing anything in the revanced patched version of YouTube, only in the PC browser version. I was wondering if this kind of situation happen for people in other countries that have emm some "special" political situations.

So I own a regular copy of c&c generals, zero hour, and I have purchased the entire c&c collection from origins. I've bought the game multiple times and don't have a PC to play it on anymore. I wanted to try and play it again but all I have is a tablet that runs windows with less then a gb of free memory. Being as old as it is compared to the specs of the tablet... it should be able to run? My only issue is can I get it running on this tablet and how much trouble would I get into for torrenting a 20 year old game to try and make it into a Bootable USB for the game or a flash drive... yes... im willing to do the work to try and get it working... just wanna know the legalities of pirating something I have multiple licensing for just no way to play. Think it would slide as a side project if EA ever did discover it?

Today I checked my email on haveibeenpwned.com and lo and behold MovieBoxPro was hacked back in April. I would recommend everyone here with an active account check by themselves, update the app to the latest version and change your password. Also to MovieBoxPro themselves f* you for not disclosing this.

movieboxpro has been hacked.

I see this question asked quite a few times, but it's hard to completely protect yourself online. What you can do is try to protect yourself online as much as possible.

So here are my two cents:

First and foremost, please use different passwords for all your accounts. I have seen people use a single password for a decade for all their emails, bank accounts, social media, etc. PLEASE DON'T BE THAT IDIOT. Also, your password could be leaked somewhere, so keep changing them at least once every six months.

Apart from that, use the TOR browser (The Onion Router). TOR is like a secret path on the internet that helps people keep their online activities private and safe from being watched. Get it here.

Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on all possible websites.

To safeguard your IP, get a VPN. There is no direct answer to which is the best VPN, but overall, PIA (Private Internet Access) seems good as they have servers around the globe and have been around for a long time.

If you're not using TOR, use Ghostery. It blocks all trackers and ads and is available for all major browsers.

Using a private cloud (not Google Drive, please) to save your files online is also great. Google Drive is famous for snooping on your files. A good option would be Mega.

Using a VOIP number from TextNow or a similar service is to use it to pass checks on spammy websites which require a phone number. For emails, fakeemailgenerator of any sort will be fine (just google it).

This much is pretty much enough, and also, you don't need another antivirus (Windows defender is enough) but you can get one if that helps you sleep at night.
