I’ll start. Did you know you can run a headless version of JD2 on a raspberry pi? It’s not the greatest thing in the world, but sometimes its nice to throw a bunch of links in there and go to sleep.

    So my question is, whose name is on the seedbox? I’ve seen people say this…is it one of the special hosts that will just send you a notice and not tell the complaint filer who you are? Connecting to a VPN or proxy has been easy enough and cheaper lol.

      I signed up using an anonymous email address and paid with bitcoin. I get an email from the seedbox provider when an “abuse notification” is receiving which recommends I stop the torrent. They claim no personal information is given out.

      I havent used one, but thats what it seems like to me. someone sets up a server in a country that doesn’t care about dmca, and you pay for them to download torrents and handle the encryption, etc.

        Mine is in the Netherlands, I only use private tracker and Usenet and haven’t had any issues. I also have 4TB storage so I run my Plex server off it. Great setup. No notices, or any bullshit really
