How private am I?

I think we all draw a line between privacy and convenience and I think I found mine and settled into a comfort zone of sorts. I use Fedora 38. My browser is Mozilla Firefox with it’s “strict” setting. uBlock origin and uMatrix. When I need/want to use a site that doesn’t work due to blocked connections I relax the...

dangblingus,

They also use Facebook messenger, which famously is not social media.

dangblingus,

No. Most men are undateable because theyre in a constant state of arrested development and our society rewards brash pomposity.

dangblingus,

Or men could start being more egalitarian and stop being misogynistic retards that cant even wipe their asshole properly.

dangblingus,

I know you think that youre some kind of archetype of “a normal man”, but your anecdotal experience isnt really valid on the macro scale.

dangblingus,

If you go on any emulation centric server, even though everyone knows why everyone else is there, there is zero tolerance for any piracy discussion deeper than acknowledging that piracy exists.

dangblingus,

I think textbook publishers have a lot of caché in government and are willing to pay people in order to take down these sites with the police’s help. Nintendo just handles bidness with their own lawyers.

dangblingus, (edited )

It’s probably not a honeypot, but if I was the president of Warner Bros or Disney, I sure would want to set up a website that gathered IP addresses of people that probably download pirated media, or better yet, confirm that they did indeed download my product.

What VPN do you use and why?

If you are a pirate VPN is an essential tool. I am trying to ascertain the popularity of various VPNs in piracy community. In this excerise, I will list several Popular VPNs in the comment if you use one of them just upvote that comment and reply the reason. If you don’t find your VPN listed add a comment with just their name....

dangblingus,

Why are you replying a bunch to your own post with the name of different VPNs?

dangblingus,

I wasn’t advocating personal ownership either. But how does that lead to OG feudalism?

Brazil Regulator Claims "80% of Pirate TV Boxes" Were Blocked Last Week * TorrentFreak (torrentfreak.com)

Brazil’s telecoms regulator Anatel claims that during an operation last week, it successfully blocked around 80% of pirate ‘TV boxes’ in the country. Estimates from early 2023 suggest that seven million were active in Brazil. The operation, claimed to be the most significant ever carried out, arrives just weeks after...

dangblingus,

Fair enough. Maybe some slightly more tech savvy Brazilians are reading this right now though lol

Piracy is Preservation (feddit.de)

Image description: a screenshot from the Wikipedia page for the Doctor Who TV series, with a user-added caption that reads “Preserve the media you can before it’s gone forever.” The Wikipedia article reads, “No 1960s episodes exist on their original videotapes (all surviving prints being film transfers), though some were...

dangblingus,

There are tons of full episodes of Art Attack on Youtube. Not sure if it’s every episode, but they are digital rips, not VHS quality

dangblingus,

Using FF with UBO, absolutely no problems. “May detect”? I’m pretty sure they either can or can’t. They’re not going to detect some FF with UBO and not others. The only thing that may affect whether or not you’re detected is if you’re using a VPN or other encryption.

dangblingus,

David and Dan.

dangblingus,

RotS was the saving grace for the prequels. Otherwise theyre just lore notes that were adapted into clunky awkward movies.
