I feel like lately I’ve been doing more piracy than actually using the content I’ve been pirating. Curating a library has been so enjoyable lately, I’m not the only one right?

I adore hacker and torrenting culture. I seed terabytes of data per month and run a media server for all my friends and family. Seeing my torrent client upload speed saturated with hundreds of people from all over the globe is honestly a vibe.

What do you do to protect yourself? Just a VPN?

Think Whonix but instead of TOR it's the VPN. It should stop common leaks but if the VPN provider is compromised I'm toast.

I just live in a third-world country, it has its own drawbacks tho.
