Usenet and Debrid (lemmy.antemeridiem.xyz)

I have been doing torrents + VPN for years now and thinking about switching.

Is usenet and debrid safe to use without a VPN in the UK? What about other piracy streaming sites?

From what I understand it's cheaper to use a VPN than have debrid + usenet + private indexers but I am not sure.

I have heard some questionable justifications as to why it's safer such as it being encrypted (torrents can also be encrypted). Are the index sites also safe? I have heard it both ways about this. Including people saying index sites are not encrypted which they normally are.

Fwiw I use a VPN on debrid because I don't trust it otherwise.

Mullvad currently but NordVPN also worked. Not sure what debrid service your using but rd has a page that lists compatible VPN services

I just look at that website you mentioned but what do they mean by cooperative? I don't think you will get in trouble by using Real Debrid is just a server and they are hosting the media you are just downloading it from them
