It's time for me to start contributing (for what are my possibilities) to this forum.

This is a quite interesting website, I do not think that what the website do is 100% ethical, but If I understood the rules of this forum correctly, it should be allowed to post.

This is a website which might be useful or curious for those who are use to download and use torrent actively. In fact given one IP address, the website is capable to show you all the material that a user has downloaded over the time, and other general information about the most popular material download etc. The information are of course usable for some purposes.

That's why you should always consider using a VPN while downloading something, especially if it's protected by copyright.

Always use a VPN during your online navigation, Irrespective of your computing habits.

Privacy and anonymity Is of the utmost Importance, hence crucial to remain within the confines of your local environment.

ill add to what mothered said

use a vpn that isn't run by a huge company and that are quite vague on what they do.

i personally use a vpn that got its download taken down, the server however are still operational, we're just a few dozen to use it and it does a great job, we can also contact the openvpn server owner via discord, so thats cool

This will be a lot easier to pinpoint a given user. It's easy to spot 1 In 50 people, as opposed to 1 In 50,000.

The objective Is to be part of the majority, not minority. A shared server with thousands of users "active at the same time" Is the way to go.

This is why people invented seedboxes.
