Kinda wish you'd be a little more detailed here.
So while everyone is telling you what to use. Let me tell you about how to behave as a pirate, least suggestively, not strictly. You need to not be a blip on the radar. Well how's that? You don't download gigs and gigs of data in a single day, you have to be a little more spread than that. Because even if you're safe under VPN and everything, if an ISP thinks you're being suspicious at any degree, they're gonna look into it.
I make sure I don't download more than I can chew and since I'm on a data cap of 350GB a month, it helps me enforce this. I've been at it for well over 25+ years so by this point, I've about acquired a lot of what I wanted so I'm in a little of my winding down period.
Try not to listen to the pirates that just boast about themselves and their habits, they're doing things you don't know about and are probably above your skill since obviously you claim to be very new at this.
I've been pirating for decades and never gave af how much I download in a day. Several hundred gigs on a weekend isn't unusual. Never got an ISP letter or had any issues, because I use private trackers.
@OP - These are the people I'm talking about.
Thanks for being a demonstrating example.
To be clear, I'm implying that you don't know what you're talking about and you are giving nonsense advice.
