It is shocking how many people don’t know how to use a VPN when proton is like $5 and takes all of 10 seconds to set up.
It seems I pissed a few people off with my comment, but hey, if you feel I’m talking about you maybe you should think about it folks!
Let me also be clear that I am not against pirating. I am against covering it with window dressing and pretending we aren’t all doing what we know we’re doing.
Especially with how much it holds your hand in understanding how it works. I’d know, because I’ve used the damn thing.
I think the people getting stung by the commentary here, are really people who I’ve personally called out in my comment alone. They also don’t like the truth of what’s being told in general as well.
I’ve pirated for over 16 years myself and I know my end goal was always to get free shit, but it became more than that where I’ve started to pay attention about the scope of pirating. I got better and understood better as I went along. In other words, I’m more of a wary pirate these days than stupidly bumbling myself around and relying on all of these services to stay up forever, for my leisure.
The worst I’ve ever gotten in my entire history of pirating was just an ISP letter. A single letter. I didn’t get fined, arrested, raided, dragged to court or anything. Done it all in America, the place where it was a hotbed where a lot of that was going on with other people caught downloading and uploading.
And I side with all of the pirates who’re fighting a good fight by keeping the practice alive and duping the entertainment industry at every turn. I side with other wary pirates who’d scoff and cold shoulder the idiots who refuse to learn, hell that’s why some places are fucking invite only, for christ sake! They don’t want stupid scrubs coming into their turf and fucking things up for the rest of them and asking a hundred dumb questions they’ve don’t got the time to answer. Especially when they’ve been answered as much as it’s been asked!
You’re being far more irritating than any of them. You’re seriously picking a fight over “pissed off a few people”? Reevaluate how you spend your time man. I’m done personally.

I think you overestimate the downvote button.
“A few” is an over estimation?
“Pissed off”
Wow.
