Following much of this thread and people wonder why torrents are thought of only to be used for piracy.
Abrausedteleprot
because its popular, but there is loads of legal torrents with some really intresting stuff out there.
I know. Torrents are an awesome way to download shit, but since they get the stigma of piracy by the prude crowd, it spoils it for others.

I'm old, I remember using it before kazaa, limewire, or bearshare. Waaay before torrent.
IHateCarpets
It is still alive. Not as it used to be bu still runs. I use it everyday for games:)
I actually used Irc after Kazaa. Downloading 300 mb anime files which took like a whole day to finish. Early 2000's sucked so much.
I had a friend in canada at the time with a sweet upload speed. 40 mins for a 30 min anime file.

There is no solid proof, but there is a lot clues that FBI is actively logging all user activity on piratebay.

The thing about cockroaches is that like other insects, they grow most just after moulting their shells, and as far as I remember it's >

Techpriest93
You should read about it, likely 3 billion humans would survive as well. Of course that would go down as crops fail, but whatever.

yeah, that sounds about right. That's the amount that would survive blasts etc, and initial radiation perhaps as well. But starvation? tough
ReadOnlyMemories
hmm.. I use usenet for, I dunno 10 years now. sometimes indexers go down too and it is sad but always there are more. No need to upload too.

iamanoldmangetoffmylawn
First rule of Usenet is do not talk about Usenet.
railgrinder
Have you noticed a lot of DMCA takedowns? I stopped cancelled my usenet subscription a few years ago because of this.
kuroisenko
what exactly is usenet tho, ive been torrenting for 10yrs but never thought to look into usenet
Mithi
https://www.reddit.com/r/usenet/wiki/faq but be aware that it costs money! I pay 10USD/year for a Indexer and 10USD/month for the [1]
Usenet provider. Only for legal stuff obviously! [2]
Like torrent but instead of upload you pay for unlimited access to a secure server $10/m and just need a place that indexes the files.
bobloblaww
Very hard to find good indexing sites that stay up. It's 98% of it- the other 2% is file storage/manipulation & saying "thank you" properly.
Been using the same one for 4 - 5 years, found some others too.
What do you use? If you don't mind me asking ...
There are tons of indexers or you can manually search the usenet. You need program like sabnzb to manage downloads easy ideally.
The usenet itself if like a huge bulletin board lots of different interests there and you can use it like a forum that way is how it started
My fav indexers at the moment are gingada">.com">gingadaddy.com</a> and nzbplanet.net manual search around binsearch.info You need (free) account at indexers.

Does downloaded material still show up as pirated to your ISP? As regards getting letters and whatnot.
In 7 years of using the site, I have never received a CnD. And i know a bunch of people that have received them in my area using tpb
ventiseii
Rule #1 - we don’t talk about the site. ;)
PostedTheGifNowMainAccountIsBanned
I've never received one either. I feel like it's just other people somehow being "bad" at torrenting shit
Supposedly if you do a lot of seeding that's how they catch you. I don't even really know what that means but that's what I heard.
Derben16
I use to not want to use PirateBay cause I thought it was sketch. Then Kickass got semi-shutdown and PirateBays my last hope.

It's gotten better over the years, I wonder if it's because users have flocked to it from other sites that were shut down.

I use IP Torrents or have my bf get something from the darknets. Piratebay is a snitch now, I get C&D's every time.
HarryBlackstoneCopperfieldDresden
IPT shares its peers with other trackers and can't even be considered private. Their sysadmin is a real piece of shit, too.
I don't care about private or not. I just wanna download stuff.
Isorikk
If you get caught on piratebay then you would've got caught on any other site. Use a VPN or don't pick the highly seeded torrents
anthaneezy
You don’t seem to understand how torrents work. It’s not TPB. If YOU can connect to a tracker, so can law enforcement. You talk right 2 them
I'm not sure how it is that his torrents don't get C&D's and mine do. We use the same computer.
TheRealImgurOP
is he using a VPN?
Maybe? But not that i know of. I'm usually on right after him.
hbsr
From the darknet kek
Seriously. The darknet isn't like where you buy blackmarket organs (I guess it can be), you just can't find it on search engines etc.
aethoneagle
That sounds like the deep web. Biggest difference is the deep is what you said, and dark net is the small bit that does the bad stuff.
It's what he calls it but I think he's just using the term in jest.
MaladaptedMedic
The darknet are websites/servers that can't be accessed outside the local net. Deep web are websites that aren't indexed on search engines.
1337x.to is pretty neat

I've heard that if nuclear war would ever happen, cockroaches and piratebay would survive.

And twinkies
kepler20c
Twinkies actually have a limited shelf life, even Tallahassee recognized that the twinkie game would end eventually.

The thing about cockroaches is that like other insects, they grow most just after moulting their shells, and as far as I remember it's >
Sauroctonus
< regenerating cells that are affected by radiation. So they last a little longer... Until they have to moult. Then they die just the same.

his cocaine fuel supply might be affected though
Techpriest93
You should read about it, likely 3 billion humans would survive as well. Of course that would go down as crops fail, but whatever.
Ivain
yeah, that sounds about right. That's the amount that would survive blasts etc, and initial radiation perhaps as well. But starvation? tough

hmm.. I use usenet for, I dunno 10 years now. sometimes indexers go down too and it is sad but always there are more. No need to upload too.
mybrothersmario
oz has been around forever, though if you don't already have it I don't think you can make a new account any more.

First rule of Usenet is do not talk about Usenet.
railgrinder
Have you noticed a lot of DMCA takedowns? I stopped cancelled my usenet subscription a few years ago because of this.
kuroisenko
what exactly is usenet tho, ive been torrenting for 10yrs but never thought to look into usenet
Mithi
https://www.reddit.com/r/usenet/wiki/faq but be aware that it costs money! I pay 10USD/year for a Indexer and 10USD/month for the [1]

Usenet provider. Only for legal stuff obviously! [2]
ReadOnlyMemories
Like torrent but instead of upload you pay for unlimited access to a secure server $10/m and just need a place that indexes the files.
bobloblaww
Very hard to find good indexing sites that stay up. It's 98% of it- the other 2% is file storage/manipulation & saying "thank you" properly.
ReadOnlyMemories
Been using the same one for 4 - 5 years, found some others too.
bobloblaww
What do you use? If you don't mind me asking ...
ReadOnlyMemories
There are tons of indexers or you can manually search the usenet. You need program like sabnzb to manage downloads easy ideally.
ReadOnlyMemories
The usenet itself if like a huge bulletin board lots of different interests there and you can use it like a forum that way is how it started
ReadOnlyMemories
My fav indexers at the moment are gingada">.com">gingadaddy.com</a> and nzbplanet.net manual search around binsearch.info You need (free) account at indexers.

IPTorrents is great, but you need to be invited and you'll end up kicked out if you only leech.

I use a private invite only site. Been using it for years
trashbandicute
Same. Reliable as hell for the most part
elfoe
How did you get an invite?
TurdQuadratic
I knew someone who knew someone haha. Id love to help you out but i dont have any :(

Same, I don't even remember what TPB looks like.
VoidofStatic
I need like minded friends to get in on one of those..
squintish
Does downloaded material still show up as pirated to your ISP? As regards getting letters and whatnot.
TurdQuadratic
In 7 years of using the site, I have never received a CnD. And i know a bunch of people that have received them in my area using tpb
ventiseii
Rule #1 - we don’t talk about the site. ;)
PostedTheGifNowMainAccountIsBanned
I've never received one either. I feel like it's just other people somehow being "bad" at torrenting shit
squintish
Supposedly if you do a lot of seeding that's how they catch you. I don't even really know what that means but that's what I heard.
Derben16
I use to not want to use PirateBay cause I thought it was sketch. Then Kickass got semi-shutdown and PirateBays my last hope.
ThatTransformersDude
It's gotten better over the years, I wonder if it's because users have flocked to it from other sites that were shut down.
TheKnower
Rargb.to is good
JustKiddingOrAmI
Pour one out for the original Kickass
InsanityCrab
Always the bridesmaid and never the bride, a very pretty bridesmaid though, one you look at and think "if I wasn't married to pirate bay". .
JustKiddingOrAmI
Hahaha well put
herrswags
I used Demonoid for a long time then they went down while they switched servers and no one ever came back to it. So I went to PirateBay too.

I liked Kickass a lot. Or Yify.

kickass.unblocked has been working pretty well so far. Just remember to block java on the site or use adblock

I use iptorrents and they really haven't failed me yet.
DomoriGato
IPTorrents is pretty sweet.

Yts.am, I've never looked back since finding it.
kaitoofrose
Piratebay needs to survive. How else will we get stuff like Toy Story 3: Alternate Ending?

kaitoofrose
There was an ending going around where it just cut to credits when Woody and the gang held hands, embracing their death. No music.

Dude, no way. That's how I really thought it should've and was actually going to end. I was disappointed, because I thought Pixar would 1/2

Use a VPN or sign up for PIA. They have a private proxy you can use for torrents.

https://torrentfreak.com/ Check here where to go. Plenty of better alternatives.
aelfer
Use the sites search function.
flamingflamingo
I use IP Torrents or have my bf get something from the darknets. Piratebay is a snitch now, I get C&D's every time.
HarryBlackstoneCopperfieldDresden
IPT shares its peers with other trackers and can't even be considered private. Their sysadmin is a real piece of shit, too.
flamingflamingo
I don't care about private or not. I just wanna download stuff.
Isorikk
If you get caught on piratebay then you would've got caught on any other site. Use a VPN or don't pick the highly seeded torrents
anthaneezy
You don’t seem to understand how torrents work. It’s not TPB. If YOU can connect to a tracker, so can law enforcement. You talk right 2 them
flamingflamingo
I'm not sure how it is that his torrents don't get C&D's and mine do. We use the same computer.
TheRealImgurOP
is he using a VPN?
flamingflamingo
Maybe? But not that i know of. I'm usually on right after him.
hbsr
From the darknet kek
flamingflamingo
Seriously. The darknet isn't like where you buy blackmarket organs (I guess it can be), you just can't find it on search engines etc.
aethoneagle
That sounds like the deep web. Biggest difference is the deep is what you said, and dark net is the small bit that does the bad stuff.
flamingflamingo
It's what he calls it but I think he's just using the term in jest.
MaladaptedMedic
The darknet are websites/servers that can't be accessed outside the local net. Deep web are websites that aren't indexed on search engines.

1337x.to is pretty neat

get invited to a private tracker, shit's awesome.

By Private Tracker, you mean Hotline? That's a name I haven't read in a long time. 3 friends and I still use it.

This is still serveral hours old but I also have torrentday invites.
bwchronos
Iptorrents yo
ActuallyACateArmyOfficialDoNotWhistleAboutIt
Despite the mods and admins being total shitheads and the site being a huge money-scam, it’s really not that bad of a page. Got invites.
notagif
I have an invite or two for torrentday... If anyone wants. We prefer ppl who share tho haha
notagif
Invites all gone now. Peace
RavioliRebellion
Hey man any chance I could have one of them invites. I want to use it with a seed box.

No problem, I need an email address to send the invite, can u pm me?
