If your IPS and the local authorities will not do anything if you download, upload and publish anything, what is the bare minimum of security measures you can do? Context: I live in Southamericas, here we have worse thing to deal with.

    I just don’t care about any of that at all. I have around 100TB of seeding accumulated over the years, no VPN, zero security measures, nothing ever happened at all.

      Meanwhile I went to school one day as a teen and had left the torrent up by accident seeding and 4 days later my isp called my parents saying that there was a huge fine coming my way if I didn’t cut it out. The isp was super small so the company they were the end user and they were nice enough to give us a heads up. The notice said something like 25,000 on it.

          Even so, this feller apparently has 100TB seeding perpetually… There’s no way 1 movie equals that traffic.

          It’s just an anecdote about the other extreme for the sake of having both sides in the comments since I happened to be someone that it really happened to

      Same. I keep reading “Use a von” everywhere but I just assume that’s a US thing. In Western Europe I never heard of a single country giving a shit about this

        I’ve heard Germany will absolutely rail your ass over copyright, much worse than the US/Canada
