I guess this settles it for me. What VPN should I go for?

Nothing for me thanks to real debrid

Wow! With vpn on (as usual) I get tons of other people's stuff - almost entirely movies and TV, lots of Bluey episodes in particular? Makes sense I don't see anything of mine, bc I haven't torrented anything in the past few days. When I turned the vpn off, nothing showed up. I suspected my rommate wouldn't be torrenting bc he always asks me to do it for him lol, he's less tech savvy, but it would be funny if something of his actually did show up.

Hmm I had my buddy go to this and he claims his download history has things he never downloaded. He doesn’t use a VPN and no one in his house torrents but him. Also he primarily uses a seedbox. Confusing lol.

Oh he uses T-Mobile home internet so prob shares a public IP with more than a usual ISP

I'm in the same boat, I haven't torrented the "traditional" way in YEARS ever since I moved over to the superior Usenet

And yet, I'm seeing a small history list here as of a couple days ago hmmm and I'm on Crapcast so CGNET doesn't apply

Looks like I'll be doing some investigating today :/ maybe it's time I got off my ass and got Suricuta running on pfsense

What did your transition to Usenet look like? I just transferred from torrenting to Soulseek myself but it isn’t cutting it

[-] cm0002@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

I transitioned to using it primarily for Sonarr and Radarr for TV and Movies. Its mostly a set and forget it if you choose the right providers and indexers.

I don't sail the Music sea because Spotify has filled all my needs for the price, same for the Gaming sea because of Game Pass.

Software, I usually just look around for freeware/open source alternatives or pay for it if it's of quality and worth the price.

I love that even the URL preview shows an IP address lol.

The site just grabs the viewers current IP I imagine it's probably whatever address is used by the instance to parse the URL and generate the preview, since it's different if I view it on my instance, vs if I view it on the original post on dbzer0

Just fun to notice I guess.

Apparently I downloaded the fate of the furious 4 hours ago on mobile data according to it?

[-] millionsofplayers@lemmy.one 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

turned on a vpn and 2 notable things on here are someone downloading one piece books and probably illegal content

[-] HumanPerson@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah I am not familiar with mobile data, but I suspect mobile ips are dynamic or shared. Apparently my mobile-data-neighbor downloaded porn.

Well they know what I downloaded but I dont really care . Is there anything my Canadian ISP can do ?

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

There's a small chance you'll get a letter with no follow-up.

[-] Virkkunen@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

I don't use a VPN nor I bother with one, I download movie torrents all the time (5 this week already) and the list is completely empty. I do have dynamic IP but ir usually only changes after I restart my router, which I haven't done for a month now.

Lol it's showing a bunch of random shit.

Thing is, it's my phone's IP. I don't download anything on this thing.

Thanks for the link! I lost this a while ago and I was loathe to find it. It comes around, doesn’t it? 😊

[-] HumanPerson@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

I accidentally clicked on one of the similar IPs links without realizing and someone with that ip happened to have gotten some of the same stuff I did. I was briefly quite worried.

Just checked my own and was surprised nothing came up. I'd have thought I would have downloaded legit torrents from Ubuntu or Archive.org at the very least.
