I would never install this into Firefox but I do want to point out that a lot of pirate stuff is hosted in Russia these days because they can ignore takedown requests

Do you test public WiFi with ZeroTier at all?

I ask because there’s a few public networks where WG won’t connect and I’m trying to find ways around it. I could always use cell data but this is more fun to me.

I know this doesn’t answer your question but I’ve never had this kind of problem with Usenet. I pay $35 USD a year and bought a couple “lifetime” memberships 6 years ago.

What others have said should help solve the problem with torrents. If you can, it might be worth getting an account with a private site.

In my case, 10+years ago I had 6 * 3tb Seagate disks in a software raid 5. Two of them failed and it took me days to force it back into the raid and get some of the data off. Now I use WD and raid 6.

I read 3 or 4 years ago that it was just the 3tb reds I used had a high failure rate but I’m still only buying WDs

Looks like nxbrew is still up.

Why use a VPS at all then? Do you not want to host at home?

I want to call out one thing in case you didn’t know.

The idea of a public VPN is to hide your traffic with other users who also use the VPN. If you’re renting a VPS you don’t get all the “benefits” of a public VPN. All you’re doing is adding an extra hop to the internet, you’re not mixing your traffic with others using the same IP. It’s all you… In fact, you’re probably making it easier to isolate the things you do online because at home you could say a guest you had over must have downloaded it. If its the VPS, its all you.

If they ever use biometrics for this, mine are for sale. Cheap… I’d like to know what happens when I can’t use who I amas my ID because it’s public.

In 2025 they exploited a 2023 vuln. What did our telcos expect to happen?

It doesn’t check all your boxes but pingvin is what I use to share large files

Looks like you got it! Congrats.

Router gets the public IP. Login to it, find port forwarding option. You’ll pick a public port. IE 443 and forward it to a local IP:port combo, IE 192.168.0.101:443.

Then you can pick another public port and forward it to a different private IP:port combo.

If you want a subdomain, you forward one port to one host and have it do the work. IE configure Nginx to do whatever you want.

EDIT: or you use IPv6. Everything is a public IP.

Back in the WEP/WPS days it was easy enough to use aircrack-ng and get access to a network. Anything public is likely to be slow and probably no access to open ports or manage it in any way.

I’m paying ~$45 CAD/month for a symmetrical 500Mbps line and I think its worth it. I’d never share this with anyone I don’t know because my name is on it, anything anyone does will come back to me.

Hang on, why not open the port to jellyfin to the internet?

I have a lifetime Plex pass so its not urgent but I have a containers running emby and jellyfin to check them out. When I decide which one I planned to open it up and give people logins.

If I could let you copy mine I’d be the first to offer a torrent.

I can invite you OP. Message me an email.

Edit to add, look into Usenet, sonarr, radarr. IPT or other torrents suck.

That being said, if you want an IPT invite PM me an email.

When it was just Netflix streaming wasn’t so bad but now that everyone and their dog wants to get in on it, it’s far to expensive. Greed would cause me to pay $15-25 per streaming service, search for the thing I want to watch and hope its there. If its not on any of them, search where I could try and pay to rent it, and if that fails I… Look for physical on eBay or just not watch it.

Or… My cost per month is about $25 (power, VPN, indexers, Usenet, etc) plus time and hardware to keep my equipment running. To watch something I login to *arr, add what I want, wait a couple minutes, and then start watching it.

Yeah, it’s a lot more in CAD. Not sure I’m going to buy it anymore. The Direct was a bit of a disappointment to me.
