What type of piracy do you use the most?

Personally I use public trackers the most and only recently private trackers for stuff in my native language.

I did setup i2p a few days ago and currently have only downloaded around ~1GB. Most of my bandwith (143 GB in / 135.5 GB out) has come from just having it in the background 24/7.

The advantages of usenet don’t really apply to me (longer retention, faster speeds, no vpn)

Streaming i find useful for checking if something is worth downloading

db2,

Nice try MPAA. 😆

Lol can’t vote over VPN

vildis,

Made the poll with a VPN, didn’t know this was an issue.

Should work now

Blizzard,

I could.

DarkThoughts,

Mostly just streaming, maybe some direct downloads i like paywalled / premium OC. I couldn't really afford either anyway so I can't say I feel too bad about it. If VoD providers wouldn't have turned out to be so garbage I might've gotten one of them, but not if that means I can't watch everything anyway. Like what's the point? I'm not gonna subscribe to everyone or hop around services. Exclusive content kinda killed them in my eyes.

BelieveRevolt,

I just use public trackers and streaming, don’t even know what half of these are, lol

max2078,

Private trackers and Usenet, great combo.

How the hell are there more Private Tracker users than DDL users

SmokeFree,

usenet IS direct downloads. Unless DDL you mean like mega, mediafire, dropbox, gdrive, pxieldrain, rapidgator, debrid etc etc.

Sharpiemarker,

So I set up i2pd on my Android phone, but I’m not sure how to torrent over i2pd. Mostly I use a VPN on my phone with libretorrent. I used to seedbox most everything.

Strict3443,

You can try using BiglyBT on android following these instructions: github.com/BiglySoftware/BiglyBT/wiki/I2P#user-co…

Otherwise, I’d suggest using a desktop to run i2psnark, BiglyBT, or qBittorrent and use i2pd along with those clients.

Sharpiemarker,

Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll give it a shot.

Maritime for the most part.

I mostly stick to traditional open ocean piracy, though I do occasionally slip into the odd bay, lagoon, or estuary.

I love crimes. But I need to hear about your crimes to rev me up! Go!

slushiedrinker,

I once shoplifted a spandex shirt that accentuated my hot body that I used to get into all the hot clubs for a month without washing it in the 1990s.

This is a crime on so many levels 🚨

slushiedrinker,

So bad I admit. Put me in jail in my hot spandex, accentuating my young, slim, body and do me like all those other guys did me.

iHUNTcriminals,

That guy in the alley

slushiedrinker,

I have become a streaming junkie since I got a chromecast. I even stream pirated shit I already pirated and saved to a drive. Actually streaming pirated shit I already downloaded and saved to a drive years ago. I just hope certain apps remain available for this magic forever. I think it’s key to own a dumb TV (not a smart TV). I don’t need no 4K. Got me a Ch-cast HD. Got me some wi-fi. Got me some Stremio.

MonkCanatella,

Why’s it asking for my address and social security number 🤔

4PB jellyfin server (NOT mine lol)

You wanna rival Netflix or something?!

cmysmiaczxotoy,

It is not mine but it rivals all streaming services combined 40 fold in available content

kniescherz,

Its amazing once you start to realize how little you can watch even when you are subbed to all streaming services. In the years I used Netflix and co my consumption changed to ‘I watch whats available’. Once I pirated again and joined a similar Plex server with a catalogue which contains pretty much every movie and tv show ever made, even international ones, it changed to ‘What weird shit I really want to watch today’.

Even if would sub to every streaming service available to me (which would probably cost 100€ per month) I could only see 20% of the movies I have watched.

Garry,

Excuse me wtf, how much did you spend on all that

cmysmiaczxotoy,

Noooo, not mine lol

Player2,

A true archivist. I applaud you

cmysmiaczxotoy,

I wish I had 4PB. It is not my server

pm_me_your_titties,

What server is that?
