FWIW if you have a seed box which you can ssh into, you can setup a SOCKS5 proxy to route all traffic through the seed box. It’ll act like a VPN for you and is the best of both worlds in my opinion. This way your ISP and government can’t block your traffic or see that you’re accessing trackers at all (even to get the magnet links).
Exactly, like how an ocean liner is a step up above a sailboat. That doesn’t mean you’re unsinkable and don’t need to worry about icebergs.
Windows is banned in my household, so l’m not worried about malware.
This is a false sense of security and just because you’re not running Windows doesn’t mean you’re immune to everything and can let your defenses down. For example, KDE recently had to announce that downloading themes will execute arbitrary code and cited someone who had personal information deleted because of downloading a theme.

Are you referring to hashicorp with recently changing license terms? IIRC the change in license was to prevent competitors (i.e. AWS) from releasing a service using the open source software from directly competing with their cloud offerings. It’s sad it had to come to it, but I think the reality of the situation is that AWS could come up with a competing cloud offering, has the built in user base, and can run the service at a loss, because they make money elsewhere.
A company like Amazon totally could afford to pay, but won’t if they don’t have to. Ultimately, I think part of the license change was in response to Amazon and AWS being a monopoly. Without the license change, their company was at risk.
it’s just after 10pm, which means you can drink if you want, and we can say whatever the hell we want
You list great points of information that should be shared to admins of other instances. Thanks for clarifying.
I assumed as much after reading it several times, but just wanted let you know and point out that statement could be misconstrued. Thanks for clarifying!
I hope people share the positive hits of CSAM and see how widespread the problem is…
It sounds like you’re encouraging people to share CSAM images found, which is obviously not the intent of this tool. There’s probably a better way to phrase what you were trying to say.
is he paid residuals for theater and streaming sales? 🤮 if so, this would be a great reason to pirate it.
