for example, if you google "a charlie brown christmas parent directory" you get the full movie instantly after clicking the second result and then the mp4 file (and there's no ads or anything like say 123movies)

this seems to work for most movies and you can download it by simply saving the video. doesn't seem to be as many options for TV shows tho afaik

        It's not prosecution that's the problem.

        If you get a certain amount of "strikes" from your ISP (i.e. say you downloaded 5 torrents that had companies like Disney tracking them), your ISP can shut off your internet permanently. They'll send you letters, but let's say you never got the letters (cuz you know, the postal service has been fucked recently): well it doesn't matter. This happened to someone I know. One day the internet was cut off and they had to call the company and find out what happened. The company restored the internet but told the person that the number of "strikes" was still there, even though they claimed ignorance. So that person only has like one or two "strikes" left before they permanently shut off the internet.
