Don your pirate hat and sail the high seas, matey. Arrr.

The solution is there... but it will take time for normie core to require this vital skill that was lost due to netflix.

Remember folks, media is 100% discretionary spend, if corpo does not give you the service you need, it is well within your ability to punish the parasite's profit ;)

A friend showed me their workflow for piracy and it's really incredible just how easy it all is. Literally just download an OVPN config from whatever VPN provider you subscribe to, connect to the VPN and search in qbittorrent (and use the link in qbittorrent to download the necessary search plugins)

Like obviously this is a few decades of software refinement, legal battles plus a fair amount of large companies turning a blind eye to the obvious. So it's shoulders of giants and all but it's still kinda jarring

If you think qbittorrent is impressive you should see someone streaming from Kodi or Stremio +Real-Debrid or some other debrid service. Its how streaming TV and movies should be.

OVPN config

You lost me on the 2nd sentence.

[-] Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 2 points 1 month ago

Open VPN config file. Basically its a text file with all of the information your client will need to know how to connect to the VPN server

key here is the decentralized model. if you note how they are always going after other corpos or institutions to enforce their "property" rights. there is no effective way to go after global population on individual basis. they tried suing people in the US but that backfired as public opinion sided with grandmas lol

fedi is already using this approach. that's the only effective way for plebs to send a message.. vote with your feet, find services that respect you. anything less than that is an extraction/exploitation racket. most key industries work like that and there is no recourse for things like housing, education, and healthcare.

Just as an fyi - people are still getting successfully sued on US soil when trackable (someone didn't use VPN)
