I thought we let this type of discussion behind us when we left reddit

The biggest problem with torrenting is that you not only download, but also upload. In most (actually all) cases of copyright infringement letters I know of it was about uploading.

While they could propably attack you for downloading, they can't really prove any losses and if they do they will be so low that it isn't profitable fot them to pursue you. The damages they want from torrenting is because you "multiplied" their work by uploading it to others.

And that would mean the piracy site logged your ip (which is likely considering how sketchy some sites are, but may also not happen) and law enforcement somehow got these ips (highly unlikely) and shared them with copyright trolls (I think because I don't think law enforcement will go after small fish like that and prosecute you for watching Marvel without paying) and I don't see why law enforcement would share them.

But I don't know law and I just never heard of someone getting a letter from copyright trolls for downloading over http. I am in Germany BTW so it may be different in other countries

Its over http so you could use it without vpn without the risk of copyright trolls

The main thing I would like to host is a VPN. I pay for mullvad but a lot of their ips are blacklisted. Which is why I'd like a cheap vps to selfhost openvpn to circumvent censorships on some free wifi networks that I use, while also keeping my data private.

This site for example advertises itself as privacy friendly. Is there any reason not to trust it?

And I am not talking about illegal stuff just want to make sure they dont snoop into what services I am selfhosting without reason

any other creds on social media

Im not using other socials, sadly

just stick around in the server and be active and that will speak for itself next time I ask for admins

Ok, will do.

I sent you a PM on reddit from my empty reddit account

I don't know if you still need help but if you still need it, I'd be happy to help. I am new to the fediverse. but really want it to become mainstream.

Also I have no experience whatsoever moderating but if its just approving real users and check they are not bots I should be able to handle it.

I deleted all content from my reddit account but if you still want to see it, tell me.

This looks really cool but I can't imagine the cost if it becomes popular

Yuzu doesn't require a switch. You just need a switch it to dump decription keys but you can find them online pretty easily The file are called prod.key

the keys don't work, they're generic keys that are made public by Microsoft

This is great. Even as a windows user I never saw a guide this good that talks about all drm solutions. Thanks for sharing your exertise. @Mods please add this to the Megathread
