Data hoarding and torrenting are in a huge renaissance period right now IMO.
Clients (qbit, deluge, transmission) are better than ever, more people are aware of private trackers and they’ve gotten better over time (bonus point systems have solved the seedbox ratio “problem”), VPN proliferation continues to grow despite my concerns with some of the providers, and public trackers are in a decent place despite the massive loss of RARBG.
Storage is cheaper than ever and we’ve hit a point where most people can probably buy one drive that would suit their entire video media, games, and digital print interests.

All the major VPN providers are in some way tied to a national intelligence agency. Not much of a secret when the companies have “former” intelligence agents on their boards or somewhere in their C-suite. For example, PIA is Mossad. Or how Nord has relationships with the CIA and NSA via it’s data broker sister company. Thing is, national intelligence agencies don’t give a fuck about piracy and if anything it’s encouraged because it gets more people to route their Internet connections through a service.
