Next DNS works too, just be sure you store your logs in a secure place like switzerland or just don't make any logs at all. You can also use protonVPN, Mullvad or iVPN to access any site like that through a proxy outside of the US

Do some research on which countries allow pirating movies and TV shows and try to stick to those

If your internet provider gives you the third degree about using a VPN just say that you don't want advertising companies to be able to see what you're doing as easily, or you can claim that when you play games online, you don't want any of those people to see where you really are. "I need to protect myself from anyone who gets salty with me after they lose"

You can also claim that you were using the VPN to see what's available in other countries on youtube, netflix and so on.

Not that I would ever pirate anything, that would be bad...or something.

You can encrypt a radio.

Yes, but that requires you and the one(s) you're communicating with to mod some radios and then to keep those radios secret, which won't be easy once you start using them, especially in a situation like that where the government would probably be scanning those frequencies for exactly that

scratch telegram off that list, put Session messenger there instead.

Telegram isn't private, one guy has the master key to the whole thing

wouldn’t a cheap walkie-talkie be more practical in that situation?

That's not secure or encrypted

yes, a lot of people were using those kinds of apps during the free hong kong protests, they go from device-to-device with no internet in between.

No idea what the app is called, but apps like those exist

yeah...not sure if it works like that

there's no benefit to any common man.

There's only benefit to the advertising companies and governments around the world.

It's a little something called "total information awareness" they want to know who everyone is and what they're doing at every second of every day

[–] ThatGuyNamedZeus@feddit.org 8 points 1 week ago

Yeah, tell him all the ways that would be dangerous.

You won't stop any crime or even any hurt feelings by doing that. You're only going to punish people who are following the law.

Criminals can fake their details

they're never going to do anything different. "orange man bad" is good for ratings on MSNBC and CNN

They have to comply with Swiss laws, otherwise their business would be illegal.

Don't be a scumbag and proton won't ever be compelled to snitch on you

read what I actually said. Unlimited everything ON PROTON PASS obviously the storage space you get on proton mail and proton drive is finite

But of course, piracy is bad. That's why you shouldn't ever do it! Why do you think every corporation has to get government handouts from the tax payers? Because we keep stealing from them....I mean...You keep stealing from them. I would never do that and I certainly don't ever do that. I haven't paid for any movies in over 10 years, so obviously that means I just don't watch anything that costs money to see.

I use a privacy friendly VPN that allows P2P because I play games online and no other reason

 

No, it's not like stealing a physical item from a store.

"stealing" a digital copy of a movie, tv show or a game is like if the item you're stealing from a store is infinitely copyable. Like the replicator from star trek...or that one episode of Sabrina the teenage witch with that box that can make a perfect copy of everything you put inside of it.

Of course I personally would never pirate anything, no matter how much streaming services increase their prices or how much they crack down on VPN usage to get around geo-restrictions, PIRACY IS BAD AND ONLY BAD PEOPLE DO IT.

I've never pirated anything in my whole life!

There are people who understand what I'm saying...but apparently most people don't get it.

Of course that means I still would never pirate anything. That would be horrible to "steal" a copy of a movie or a TV show
