Not a bad idea, all things considered. The only issue is that I would need collo space and a VPS in non-DMCA land. The hardware behind a seedbox shouldn’t be that crazy anyways, just a lot of bandwidth and a lot of storage

Once I have a job I’m going to rent a seedbox for public trackers. Fuck DMCA!

Corporations would prefer to take away your right to public utilities than face a loss to their profit margin.

When engaging in criminal activity, you have no “legal” recourse for malicious behavior, so you work on the web of trust instead.

If you can’t trust the software, nor the publisher, nor the hash verified by however many seeders, then don’t download it in the first place. Me personally, considering I install indie porn games on the regular and never once gotten a virus that I know of, I think it’s worth it to trust others.

Of course you could always go into paranoid zero trust mode but sometimes being a social being means trusting the criminal serving you free shit isn’t ratfucking your data

There are no good guys in war

Time to start hosting Trojans on your website

Clearnet shall become brainfucked by states and corporations if’n it already hasn’t been, and OpenNIC and Dark Web pirates will reign supreme. Remember, this stuff only really affects public trackers and “cable pirates,” not sophisticated private tracker communities or anything else

Start accepting American LGBT refugees then.

Millions of LGBT Americans

You’re talking to one, and no, the Democrats have backstabbed us at every opportunity. Especially at trans issues, which they love to capitulate on as a bargaining chip for getting their capitalist donors more money.

Maybe if you lick fascist boots a little more, it’ll become even better.

If you walk outside and throw a brick in the face of a cop, you can talk to me about what it means to be a bootlicker.

I also find it amusing that I’m getting called a ‘moralist’ because I advocated the utilitarian option.

You advocate for action based upon a spook? Sorry, that makes you a moralist. You decided that “maximizing utility” was the moral choice, and that again makes you a moralist. Perhaps you should write a sternly worded lever-pulling manifesto to send to your congressman?

Call me a Nazi all you like, it doesn’t make me a Nazi. In fact, you moralists should take that log out of your eye and actually look at the world your status-quoism has generated

You clearly don’t understand leftist thought. Voting for a cop, a warmonger and a complicit child-kidnapper is incompatible with many leftists’ beliefs and values. Continued aversion to actually listening to criticisms of the Dems and DNC from the left is why your beloved party is crashing and burning.

Not if the clowns at 50501.zone have anything to do with it. They wanna control the narrative so hard
