Oh, I know this one! The third explosion, right?

I agree with this, but don’t have much hope of anything passing. They didn’t outlaw underage hentai, so I feel like this is an uphill battle they’ll give up on.

I’m using Geek, they’re pretty good so far. I’ve found everything I’ve searched for on them. I don’t even search trackers anymore, with how fast and efficient Usenet is compared to torrents.

The lazy pirate’s best friend.

Why would you want to convert to mp3? This ain’t 2003, there’s way better formats to use than that.

It doesn’t matter if YouTube can detect uBlock. The great thing about uBlock is you can just block the anti-adblock script. Since Javascript is executed on the user’s computer, it’s trivial to just tell your computer to ignore it. And moving it to server side would cost them too much money in processing power.

That’s why they want everyone to adopt their DRM, so they don’t have to worry about it.

Jackett is pretty good, but you should really check out the *arr suite of apps. And when you do, you’ll find Prowlarr is quite a bit better than Jackett for finding just the stuff you want.

It’s definitely the most powerful plugin of any kind, for any browser.

NoScript blocks scripts per domain. uBlock Origin can block scripts per domain, per site, and per script. So you can block any script from Google across the whole web, except on their own sites, rendering their tracking inoperable. So in this, I’m sorry to say but your opinion is objectively wrong. uBlock has more functionality and finer control than is possible with NoScript. In fact, uBlock is the most powerful security plugin available for browsers. Turn on script blocking and advanced mode, and you don’t need anything else to protect your browser.

Oh boy, this comment section is gonna be spicy. I can already smell the smoke from the Brave enthusiasts heads exploding.

Don’t use Tor in any browser except the Tor browser. Since the whole point of Tor is being totally anonymous with no way to identify you, if you’re able to be fingerprinted you’ve broken the whole thing and you shouldn’t even bother. And yes, you can be fingerprinted in Brave, with a high reliability. The best browser for resisting fingerprinting is the Tor browser, followed by LibreWolf.

I hope you didn’t hurt yourself with all that stretching.

Don’t bother with NoScript. Just use uBlock Origin, it is capable of blocking scripts as well, and with finer control than NoScript is capable of.

Kindle supports epub now, and if you try to send a mobi formated book through email to your kindle, then Amazon will send you an email telling you that that format has been depreciated.

Caliber lets you click a button to email something to your kindle.

That’s pretty funny, because I’ve been loading epubs on my Kindle for awhile now, both via cable if I’m at home, and over email if I am not. Amazon recommends epubs over mobi, in fact, and threw a fit when I emailed a mobi.

Don’t root your phone. It gives everything on your phone root access to do whatever it wants, which totally invalidates all of your phone’s security measures and leaves you completely unprotected. Nothing worth doing to your phone needs root, and there’s almost always a way to do whatever you want to do without rooting.

The short answer is no. Why would you even ask that? Piracy is never safe, and you take responsibility for downloading stuff based on nothing more than the word of strangers you’ll never meet that it’s not infected with something that’s going to steal your banking information.

Wait, this article makes it sound like Meta would have to pay for other people posting links on Facebook to news websites. If that’s the case, that’s nuts. Are they gonna try doing this with Reddit and Lemmy too, or does it just apply to Facebook? Cause that’s a great way to get Canadian news sites banned from everything on the entire net.

Try Usenet instead. Or get a seedbox and let that do the torrenting for you. Either you have a DNS leak with your VPN, or they’re just guessing your torrenting because of how much traffic you’re using all the time. The DNS leak is more likely.
