Pirate everything. For books:

Libgen.is

For everything else check out the megathread at reddit.com/r/piracy

I would love to pirate but would suffer undue anxiety about it and would be hit quite hard if my internet provider cut me off. I know about vpns but don’t know which are trustworthy

NordVPN is probably the most trusted. They've been around a long time and have generally positive reviews.

[-] melbaboutown@aussie.zone 2 points 4 weeks ago

Maybe. I’m still incredibly risk averse.

I've pirated for years and never been caught. The bigger issue is accessing the torrent websites. But you can set up search in Qbittorrent to search within the program, so you don't even need to go to the dodgy websites

I’d not know where to start and would add insane anxiety to my life.

[-] tombruzzo@aussie.zone 2 points 3 weeks ago

I understand, and it's not worth the stress if it's something you're worried about.

The guides are always out there if you ever want to give it a go

Thanks. It’s a valuable skill, just one I’m not sure I can master!
