Which is why I was super clear about not being one. Glad you were able to get the opportunity to say what another user already said a day before.

I’m glad someone with more knowledge then me responded.

I am not an expert so I would highly recommend looking into more credible sources but my guess would be, since this is most likely not a very popular add-on, any browser with it would stand out considerably more relative to not having it.

Typically its common for browsers that want to reduce fingerprinting (tor, mullvad etc) recommend not installing new addons as then you stand out from crowd.

I’d say, since there are so many alternative ways to get this filter list, even if its a marginal increase in fingerprinting, its not worth installing it as an add-on.

I don’t think your giving people much credit. Anyone on here who can bind their VPN to their torrent client can easily handle this.

I mean the filter list github literally provides instruction. So does ublock, so does pretty much any DNS filtering service.

This isn’t rocket science. All it takes is like 2% effort.

Honestly if your going to use this, its better to just add the list to ublock, then add another extension which makes your browser more fingerprintable or, better yet, add the list to your pihole or DNS filter service.

I know sharing is caring but it should be said that if you dont plan on seeding anyway, mullvad is perfectly fine for torrenting.

I also think its worth mentioning that proton only supports ephemeral remote port forwarding which is objectively worse then airvpns implementation, if port forwarding is super important to you.

Real Debrid is probably the easiest solution.

From there you can either go the stremio route or plex / jellyfin.

Your a massive a-hole if you get amusement out of people getting screwed out of not being able to use a product they paid to use.

I admit this is not a helpful answer but…

If you want to have hundreds of gigabytes or more of media storage plus backups, its going to be expensive. There is no secret cheap way.

This is what makes debrid options so appealing. You can amass terabytes of media data for a cheap monthly cost.

You can then supplement that with a small nas or drive of rare or hard to find media / offline selection in which case you could probably run raid 10 with the small amount that you would actually need to backup.

This exactly.

Keep blowing hot air. Thats all you know how to do. The keyboard warrior generation at its finest.

Even if it was, why screw over the people who are doing what you want? Price hikes arent hurting pirates lol.

This is the new generation in a nutshell.

“Hey someone other then me should do this thing I want”

This made me laugh. Anyone who has lived in central or south america sees this type of thing happen all the time.

Do this all the time with video games. Pirate to try before I buy. If I really like the game I buy it in the hopes it creates an incentive to make more games like the ones I like.

There are legitimate versions of windows that are hard to get as a non enterprise consumer. Such as some of the IOT versions that have much longer security support.

The bar for torrenting is super low. If all you want to do is avoid DMCA notices pretty much any VPN will do as long as you bind it to your torrent client.

In terms of Windscribe they have become a much more respectable VPN if you also want some privacy protections and DNS protections but there are better options.

They used to be a bottom dweller VPN selling off lifetime memberships for $30 in the mid 2000s but have really become a strong privacy advocate over the last few years.

Something can be shady and not a honeypot. It’s much more common. Its like people forgot this and now anytime anyone feels something is sus this type of post appears.

I was in middle school and I saw my friend had all the episodes of ATHF (aqua teen hunger force) and I wanted to be able to get free episodes of stuff. Silly but true.

You can therefore blame the mooninites for my piracy.
