or even pseudo-incriminated for attempting to maintain our own life.

It seems so stupid that I’m like a suspect for wanting an exchange of information without dropping my pants and bending over. No, I don’t want cookies. Yes I want to read the article but no, I don’t want to “sign up.”

It makes me feel like being a f*cking hermit. But I prefer to pirate. Even though I’m not that good at it. Screw them. I got two private trackers, a VPN, and I hope that’s enough.

        Newsgroups.
        Basically (Its all afaik) bulletin boards and meant for groups juat chatting like we do here on reddit/lemmy.
        But they also host binaries that (when put together) equal a movie file. Kinda like a multi-rar file.
        Thwy usually have deals around black friday.

      I’ll be the first to preach Usenet for movies and shows, but I’m wondering if you’ve found it useful for gaming/ music.

      Unless I’ve misunderstood how it works, don’t you need to pay for Usenet?

      Something about paying money for pirated content rubs me the wrong way.
