Not at all, there's legal risk if you're hosting your blurays. Cloudflare even explicitly forbids such use. VPN or nothing imo.
Wow, Cloudflare is against piracy? Every single site I've ever seen in my life is registered with Cloudflare and uses their DNS with the exception of PTB I believe.
They have to be. They have to at least somewhat comply with laws to avoid lawsuits and fines
Oh, ok, "they have to be" in the same way my seedbox says not to download copyright material. Got it.
Not sure about that, I think it's more just that they don't want people streaming terabytes of traffic through their edge.
Well, I don't know. Cloudflare seems to be the standard, again with that one exception, and the only reason PTB has a different situation is because the founders had a connect.
Legal risk of bluray rips, as opposed to other media types?
