Im honestly scared to get into pirating but some things are just way too overpriced. i know theres the piract bay and such sites but it requires torrecting and a vpn but i cant afford a vpn so is there like a direct downloads version of the pirete bay or a safer alternative? im looking to get a few peices of media by the way.

also how do you all store so much media without issues or getting into trouble? also am i aksing the wrong place by chance?

i know there is internet archive but i find it hard to find what you are looking for and kinda clunky.

    I wonder why something like that hasn’t become a thing and gotten big.

    Not only is tor not used by the majority of pirates, it also limits speeds by a lot. Not to mention you can’t index onion links in search engines. But I mean, you wouldn’t need a VPN with it, so…
