  • Stremio is an APP that downloads movies and series from torrents while you watch, actually it just shows you things from addons you add to it, technically you can add addons from paid services like apple, and amazon video, but you can also add addons like torrentio that aggregate a lot of torrent sources.
    It integrates with IMDB and download subtitles automatically from open subtitles, it is very feature complete, you would probably just have problems with too old or niche movies that have a low number of seeders but you can always right click on the moving while running, copy magnet link and put in an torrent downloader like qbittorrent.
    Just take care with your vpn, make sure you check the option of your VPN to shutdown the internet in case the VPN disconnect automatically (usually is default) so you don’t have the risk to accidentally download part of your torrent out of the VPN. As long I know US is crazy when talk about piracy.



  • Well, starting with, if you own an original copy. Sometimes companies put stupid DRMs in some digital stuff that just make the life of buyers miserable, games love to do that. For me is always ethical to pirate these ones.

    Second, anything that you don’t have money to buy, if you will never buy this stuff I can´t see why is bad to pirate, you are not stealing anyone, and I know a lot of cases (me included) that a person pirated something to test and then buy the thing after.

    Education, similar to the prior, if a book or anything is not affordable to ppl that are willing to study an area, for me is totally ethical to pirate, this is a very common situation in third world countries where the dollar is very expensive causing books that are imported to be too expensive to students.



  • You did not need to watch something to be bombarded with similar content, Youtube recommends things that are watched by ppl that watch things you watch (sorry about that). And it seems to considerate the overall popularity, at leat for me, so it usually recommends stupid popular right wing things just because it is overall popular and happens to be watched by a lot ppl that also watch dota 2 for example. I had to disable YouTube tu use my history to suggest content, my front page is full of things that I already watched from my subscriptions but for its better than YouTube stupid suggestions.
