Normally I don't have much time to watch movies, and for the occasional one Netflix is good enough. But once a coupple of years there is a specific one I want to see which is not on Netflix.

Normally I can find it on ThePirateBay, but sometimes it's offline.

So my question is, how to get a movie like "Sing 2" in a easy way like I used on TPB now in 2023.

In my country torrent sites are blocked, so I use a search plugin for qBittorrent to find Linux ISOs. I don't quite remember which one I use or how I installed, but it was quite simple. Google is your friend.

Make sure to use a vpn when your country cares about this stuff. Its not fun to pay 800€ for one episode of the fucking walking dead. (Germany)

I heard Germany is way too aggressive with this. I wonder what will happen if I were to travel to germany and download copyrighted material on my mobile data

When you torrent in Germany from your home without a vpn its just a matter of time when you will get the letter to pay. On mobile you should be safe since afaik you share an IP with all the people who use the same cell tower, but this could be dangerous misinformation. Also the lawers are trying to get the easy money, I think when they see a tourist downloaded something they dont bother.

but this could be dangerous misinformation.

It is, one can and will be pinpointed using a timestamp and the IP address and the port. These information are always unique per user.

They don't care about individual downloaders that much here and I genuinely don't use it that much.

[-] Lemonyoda@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

So, how so you so it without Torrent then, in Germany? Usenet only?

[-] kniescherz@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

Use a VPN. Also I am only using private trackers which minimizes the risk drastically. But Usenet is also fine. When I still tried to get German content oftentimes you will find OneClickHosters though, but I only get english content nowadays, so the scene could habe changed.

Why in the ass would you need a plugin for downloading Linus ISOs which are free and non-illegal

[-] kniescherz@feddit.de 11 points 1 year ago

Oftentimes anything copyrighted like warez, music and movies are called 'linux isos' to hide the fact that you are doing something shady.

Like: "I got a NAS with 20TB of Linux Isos to enjoy."

Oh. Okay good to know. But wouldn't it be redundant to use something like this here in a piracy sub

[-] kniescherz@feddit.de 6 points 1 year ago

Sure. Buts its also an inside joke.

Probably not, I'd assume they're using the plugins for the built-in search

[-] mrjfilippo@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Jackett can be incorporated into qbittorrent's built-in search function.

[-] Revan343@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Oh, I didn't know that. Cool, thanks for the tip
