Regular users in Sweden are in danger because a corporation needs to fill their pockets. Studios are suing your ISPs to get to you.

Use I2P. It will hide your IP address (among the many things it can do), afford you more privacy and allow you to torrent freely, even without a VPN/seedbox. The catch? You’ll have to add the I2P trackers to your torrent.

I believe I2P is the way forward for piracy and I look forward to it getting bigger than it already is.

    seed!!! I have already started my i2p setup and i will donate my bandwith

  • Does anyone know of a fairly uncomplicated method to set up my seedbox, so I can seed on the clearnet and I2P at the same time, without having to store two copies of all my torrents? I already seed terrabytes of torrent data, and I don’t want to store duplicates of all that.

      I know nothing about seedboxes, but on a computer you can point multiple torrents to the same directory. If you make it read-only, by permission or mount options or whatever, the torrent client can’t even fuck it up

    A proper VPN provider is sufficient to protect against this though. If you, as a Swedish citizen, weren’t already using a VPN, you were being an idiot.

    I mean, it still makes sense to also use I2P, but it is currently not good enough as a full replacement.

      A VPN company can easily give up your details to the police who are now actively going after citizens. VPNs are not enough anymore.

      Is there a problem with I2P adoption? I’m sensing a massive lack of interest from this thread

        If there are no logs, there is nothing to give up. There is no law that they have to keep logs as far as I know.

        Don’t get me wrong, I’m interested in i2p. Thanks for posting.
