Been archiving a lot of my favourite shows. I expect a lot of them to either disappear in ten years, or sit behind some subscription.
This is probably a different discussion, but anybody with tips, tricks, and details of where and how to do this safely, this might not be a bad place to show off what you know.
Step 1. Get a VPN. Probably a paid one that aligns with the needs of the client. Step 2. Get an app for p2p/torrent downloads to make things fast. Step 3. Configure your app of choice to strictly use the tun0 (VPN) only and nothing else. Just in case you get a lapse. Step 4. Do it like it's 2008 again baby!
Use mullvad. Pay with a fresh crypto wallet. And use Usenet.
most crypto is useless and practically a scam, it's a rabbit hole in itself to find a worthy one. paying for vpn with crypto only helps if you use an untraceable crypto
if I would recommend one, it's Monero, because it's private by default and untracable, but nobody should believe me without doing their own research. I mean it.
"Crypto" is such a vague term it's almost comical to imply it's private. Sure there are ways to use crypto privately, but it takes a lot of steps.
