So I am planning on buying an ipad, never owned one before. I have always been an android guy and from what I have heard Ipad os or ios is pretty restrictive in nature so I was wondering how much does it hamper the piracy experience. For example on android I can torrent files of any nature or size without any restrictions and sideload the apk's of paid apps to enjoy them for free, can I still do all this on an ipad or should I just drop the idea and get an android tablet instead ?

Notes, please read:

For those of you who don't know, HWID was the holy grail for Windows activation, letting you generate licenses straight from Microsoft licensing servers, being registered as fully legitimate in microsofts servers and letting you keep the activation permanently, even after windows reinstalls being completely undetectable and with nothing on your system being modified. If you're still using outdated activation methods and you missed out on this, I'm sorry

Existing HWID licenses are left unaffected. Only new requests are blocked, no licenses were revoked.

By the way, MAS still works and is the best option for Windows/Office activation. For permanent Office activation use it's Ohook method (supports subscription products such as 365 as well) and KMS38 for Windows

ALL OTHER ACTIVATION METHODS ARE STILL WORKING, ONLY METHOD AFFECTED IS HWID.

All HWID activators are affected, not only MAS

Around that time, Microsoft servers unexpectedly started blocking the licensing requests HWID activation method sends to Microsoft. This was a slow rollout that spanned over a few hours, at the moment the exploit is completely dead. The best options for Windows activation now is KMS38 or vlmcsd.

Patching this would boost illegal key reselling websites which causes more harm to Microsoft than HWID exploit. We can only wonder why they patched this.

{"code":"BadRequest","data":[],"details":[],"innererror":{"code":"PermanentTSLRejection","data":[],"details":[{"code":"113","message":"avsErrorCode","target":null}],"message":"The Purchase Service rejected the provided TSL; the client should destroy the TSL.","source":"PurchaseFD"},"message":"The calling client sent a bad request to the service.","source":"PurchaseFD"}

TLS=Temporary Signed License=The tickets HWID activation sends. Microsoft servers are now just responding with "kill it."

Transferring existing HWID licenses to other computers using Microsoft account is broken too.

Can't wait for all that's in store next.

A bit out of the loop can some one provide some info.Thanks in advance.

What is Jackett ?

To put it simply, Jackkett enables you to browse torrents from multiple indexers like 1337x, torrentz etc at the same time without needing you to visit each site one by one. It basically makes finding stuff easier and more efficient.

On to the guide then.

1. Open qbittorrent, go to view -> Search engine. At this point qbittorrent will check if you have python runtime installed, if you don't have it then it will prompt you to install python runtime. Just hit next and install it like every other software.

2.Now head over to this link and download Jackett.installer.windows.exe

3.Run the installer and install the program , make sure you install jackett as a windows service. This will let you start or stop jackett from windows tray.

4.Keep Jackett running and head over here .Now from this dashboard you can add your indexers, Click add indexer, use the search to search your favourite indexers and click on the tiny + button to add them, You can also add private indexers and configure them using the respectable options.

5. Once you are done with adding indexers, copy you api key present on the top right by clicking on the copy to clipboard icon beside it.

6. Now open qbittorrent again, click on search-> Search plugins ->Install a new one-> web link and paste this: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/qbittorrent/search-plugins/master/nova3/engines/jackett.py , The plugin should get installed and appear in the installed plugins section.

7. Press windows+R key and search %localappdata%. Now go to qbittorrent ->nova3->engines->Jackett.json. Open it using note pad and paste the previously coppied api key to where it says "your api key here". Save it. You can also change where it says "false" to "true" so that the search results show the source indexer's name.

8. Now you can search for anything from the qbittorrent app itself and it will automatically search all your added indexers and provide the best torrents. All thanks to Jackett plugin.

I was setting this up and couldn't find a straight forward guide so decided to make one after I figured it out myself. Hope it helps you in some way. Keep sailing 😄.

I have already done the prerequisites and am trying to get the Jackett.py file(the plugin itself) but every time I click on the download button it takes me to this site. I can't figure out how to download Jackett.py from here. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Pretty much the title.
