Hi,
Sorry if this has been posted before but I’m looking at trying Usenet instead of torrents.
I’ve done some Googling and honestly, it’s a little overwhelming knowing what Usenet provider to use, where to get quality indexers and which download client would be the best.
If anyone has any resources or advice to help me sail the Usenet seas I would be eternally grateful!
yea that’s not true technically. the only reason usenet hasn’t been dismantled by infinite court cases is its obscurity.
Usenet still uses SSL so ISPs can’t see what you download
No but content owners could directly DMCA stuff that’s hosted on usenet, they just don’t.
Yes but that doesn’t affect any of us.
Of course it is illegal for the providers.
It could if that DMCA or some court order resulted in revealing your residential IP, and then your monopoly ISP terminates you. SSL/TLS would not save you there.
