Got a link to the CVE?

I would set the platform as scope but instead peer to peer technology.

The post has a pretty specific question, and including actions taken against users outside that scope is closer to fearmongering than answering the question at hand. Lumping all p2p usage together isn't useful as long as they're specifically targeting BT sharers; they're not going to accidentally gather IPs of Soulseek users with their torrent honeypots.

This would possibly be applicable if Soulseek users were having action taken against them, but has that ever happened? Action taken against individual pirates has pretty focused on bittorrent users. I know Soulseek itself has been sued, but have any users?

That's more of a cautionary tale about running out-of-date software. A vpn wouldn't have affected it at all, and it's not especially relevant to OP's question. It also doesn't have anything to do with sharing content, not really relevant to your initial comment either.

The Sony rootkit thing happened nearly 20 years ago. They're not just now making dick moves.

Grabbed a year on the Black Friday sale and, holy shit, it's so much better. Actual explanations and lessons is way better than the pointless gamification/leaderboards.

Most posts from what I see are now ‘’meme’s’’, ‘‘I justify pirate because…’’ and ‘’This is my collection!’’. Pretty much just hurr-durr look and upvote me kind of content.

/r/piracy wasn't much different in that regard when I unsubbed from it, long before leaving reddit last summer. It happens anytime there's a large enough userbase, as that sort of content is easier to create and consume, the latter making it more likely to get voted up.

Can also be done via trakt or imdb lists, if you're paying more attention to what you're doing than OP.

Seconding this, as it's my go-to for anything that's not for sale on Bandcamp and has treated me well.

It's almost always going to be easier to obtain them through other means.

In the past, I've had good luck with StreamFab. It's expensive and Mac/Windows only, I believe. I had a smallisj use case and was able to automate mac address changes on a VM so could get by with the free trial. Been a while, so I can only vouch that it used to work well, not sure if anything's changed since then.

There was a pretty widespread crackdown on widevine decryption keys last year, iirc. That's the sort of thing you'd be looking for if you wanted to continue searching out other tools or possibly roll your own.

torrents didn’t have official support till fairly recently and it’s still a little wonky

I don't think this is true at all. They've both had solid torrent support for years, across multiple major version numbers. It's neither wonky nor recent.

I’d say you’re probably going to want some custom scripts. Have Radarr move the file and rename as normal and then your script to symlink it back to the torrent directory under the original filename so it can continue to seed without taking up double space for every movie

Further driving home that this dude is full of shit, hardlinking the files is enabled by default in both Sonarr and Radarr and certainly doesn't require any custom scripting.

OP, quit listening to random people online and spend some time reading the documentation yourself.
