I like grapheneos the product.

The staff is super abrasive and they constantly attack other privacy projects. See the recent attacks on Jonah from privacy guides, or the attacks on calyx, or the bs with rossman that forced micay out of the spotlight.

They need to hire an outside professional to manage their PR. The way they communicate is their biggest flaw.

FYI- Its not a ROM.

The app was bought out 9 months ago by some mystery company, isn't actually open source, and you have not switched or made backups? I'm sorry, this is as much a user error as an issue with Raivo.

I really appreciate privacy articles that talk about threat modeling as it seems like its the biggest part of privacy people miss.

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.

I use an optiplex for torrenting, Plex media server, and real debrid. The VPN is always on so I wouldn't be concerned to use it as my daily driver but it's a bit old to handle other tasks in use my daily driver for.

Another case of a user with terrible opsec that proton will end up being blamed for.

Mullvad, IVPN, Proton, AirVPN, or Windscribe are all fine. Depending on how much stock you put into audits the first three are probably a tier above for privacy.

What don't you like about IVPN? Audited, open source, great reputation. I don't even use them but seems odd to count them out.

Meanwhile ryujinx be like "nothing to see here"

I get what your saying and obviously overpaying by 15x, like in your example is a terrible idea but, I will say, overpaying by a much smaller amount to save time is sometimes worth it.

One thing your example does not do, and its something most people don't do is factor in how much your time is worth. Is spending an extra $500, for example, worth as much as multiple hours of your time?

Tor is the best option of anonymity but, its bad opsec that you really have to worry about. There is no platform that can save you from yourself.

The irony in not being able to pirate a game from the publishers of "Rise of Piracy"

Yeah i should of specified. For me, specifically, i use windows but if people want to add links to other OS im sure someone would appreciate it.

This on reddit ended up being super helpful for my needs.

What do you mean by premium? Not sure tpb was ever a "premium" torrent site.

If your just looking for other torrent sites to use, check the megathread.

If you use all the services, sure.

I also think there is an argument to be made to just make separate accounts for each service instead of buying the bundle as its the best bang for your back.

If your using a vpn its pretty much unavoidable. You could opt to use a vpn service that offers a static ip, since not sharing an ip with a bunch of other users will reduce your browser being flagged but, that comes with privacy trade off

Educational piracy is even more justified. Knowledge should never be paywalled.

You first. Feel free to post it here.

I think plex + real debrid is also a pretty easy option. Auto downloads anything you add to your watchlist, unlimited storage.
