  • No advantages privacy-wise, but it's like a seedbox! I keep the torrent client running. Also I'm on a limited mobile data plan on my router at home, so this helps.

    When I found out you could get a free 200GB VPS (look up free tier vps) - and because I had another paid VPS already anyway - I decided to make a seedbox. It's not a ton of storage but it works really well, very happy with it.

  • Both comments are me. Configuring Tailscale (or Headscale?) is on my to-do.

    To be clear, connecting to the VPS is not what I use for the anonymizing part, it's the gluetun container that connects to ProtonVPN servers. This way I can still access my VPS with its real IP. Not sure if there was a confusion there.

    Simply using my VPS as relay would still attach my browsing to a single IP I'm the sole user of... or not? I do not know how that works.

  • VPN on VPS (easy to do with gluetun)

    Basically you use a container that's a VPN connection and connect other containers to it.

  • ProtonVPN has started to become blocked on tons of websites. I have to switch servers all the time, to the point I won't be able to keep a VPN connection up like I used to.

    I've read Mullvad has worsened as well. There seems to be a general ban on VPN use (there was always some of course)

    My last hope: non profits who offer VPN. They keep logs, don't allow torrenting, and require a real name to subscribe. Very few server choices, if any.

    I'm... fine with that. I just want privacy. No surveillance. And I trust the non profit. Plus I torrent on a VPS anyway

    What I would like to see are local VPNs, with a small enough pool of users on each server to not get flagged. A rotation between servers from time to time. Compliant with the law of course (as long as the law doesn't require total surveillance, evidently). The goal is to hide everyone's activity from the providers and websites (yes, I know, fingerprinting)

    But maybe there's some other existing tool/service I'm not aware of?

    Edit: Nah, no influencers in 2007, a blissful time

  • I've had a VPN on my router for years. Past 2 years have become increasingly difficult. Many websites are blocking them.

    I've tried many major providers. Now I'm looking at small non profits offering a VPN, hopefully with better results.

  • Interesting! Thanks

  • Legal game updates as torrents? Is that a thing?

  • You're upvoting the same guy saying the exact same thing on the same sub

  • Youre right let's call it a gif-jif

  • I remember a scene in the (good) show Louie when Louis CK criticized trump in a trump casino (he's often the morally superior guy in his show)

    Won't happen there

  • It's certainly a country.

    Wait, is it the stan country with the crazy dictator that renamed bread with his mother's name

    Edit : it is! kinda...

    He also abolished the Turkmen word for bread and replaced it with Gurbansoltan, his mother's name.[45][46]dubiousdiscuss]
