OK, so, I have a couple of questions:

  • What's the worst that can happen if I don't use a VPN while pirating?
  • Are free tier VPNs (like Proton VPN) good enough?
  • I don't want to pay much or anything for a VPN, is a way I can get a good free one, or set one myself somehow (I have experience with selfhosting) ?
  • If not, which cheap one do you recommend?

EDIT: I pirate mostly movies, and rarely some TV series.

thats like, the biggest honeypot lmao. protonvpn:

  1. does not accept monero
  2. its onion site, once you click on the register pages takes you to the clearnet site.

Okay. They do have port forwarding though
