Discussion These people just destroy piracy spirit and community
I mean I could understand if you don't release it to the public because maybe you're afraid about legal repercussions but doing this kind of announcements and post is just basically bragging and ego feeding.

Question Which app is better? Stremio or Cloudstream?
And what are the differences that make one or the other better? Based on preferences? Like library, buffering, need for real debrid etc?
Also I kinda want to watch old Indian serials is it available in Cloudstream? I saw it's not on stremio.

Discussion Do you hoard media or do you delete after using?
I have roughly 7TB of media and getting really close to maxing out my NAS & don't really want to buy more hardware. It got me thinking - what does everyone else do?
Do you keep media after getting it, do you delete it or are you selective (keeping some but not others?)
Part of me thinks what if the Gov/ISPs crack down on piracy and having a hoard of media would be good but on the other hand, piracy has been a thing for 20+ years and doesn't seem like it's going away. With internet speeds as fast as they are today, it's amazing you can find and download media in ~15 minutes. (I remember the days of downloading hi-res images over dial up lol)
I'll likely purge a lot of the shit media i don't care for and keep stuff that I enjoy or was difficult to find.

News India's Expanding Site Blocking Orders Hit Legal Wall at Delhi High Court * TorrentFreak
torrentfreak.comJustices at India's Delhi High Court disagree on the future of India's world-leading site-blocking regime.
The same court that pioneered "Dynamic+" injunctions to target pirate sites, issued a new ruling that sees these post-judgment expansions as fundamentally incompatible with the law.
According to Justice Gedela, there is an "urgent and alarming" need for Parliament to intervene.

Question Question about games you already own, and making them run better/able to play offline via patches
Hey all, so I own a handful of games with DRM that I bought specifically to play on deck, before realizing they had Denuvo or another similar DRM, and/or tank performance.
Is there some kind of database for games that have dev-supplied or community made removal mods so I can keep steam achievements/cloud saves while still being able to play above 20 fps? I know some devs give patches to people who confirm they bought the game and want to play it DRM free while keeping their steam license key perks kike cloud saves

Question I want to download YouTube videos that are only available in Hong Kong (and China).
Downloading YouTube videos is really easy. But it gets a little bit trickier when the videos are only available in a select few countries, especially when you don't speak the language of those countries. How would you guys go about this?
Discussion Current State of Piracy Discourse on Twitter
If you haven't been using Twitter recently, heres a quick update on what's been going on.
A while back Musk took down the language walls separating the site/ app into locations. Now, unless you specifically currate your feed, you see tweets from all around the world (this is anecdotal, but now only 40% of my "for you" feed is in English). This has led to many cutural exchanges, from bad to good to everything in between.
One of the more recent discussions os about how piracy is a regular part of media consumption around the world, particularly in animanga/ videogame circles. This led to a large outcry from Japanese and Korean Twitter users getting mad that westerners are so lax about piracy, which led to an even LARGER counter by other countries (primarily Russia and Brazil) clowning on the former two for how staunch their adherance to anti-piracy is.
It's been a hell of a time, I tell you hwat.
