I thoroughly regret not building up a physical media library over the past decade to throw into Jellyfin or something to avoid all the streaming services. facepalm

Step 1: Get a reputable VPN.

Step 2: Install uBlock Origin.

Proton VPN, Airvpn, and Mullvad are all reputable. Proton and Air have port forwarding if that’s a requirement for you.

These media can be found, yarrrr

I did it just because my wife and I are brats. We didn’t want to rely on Netflix’s whims to carry our content of choice, so now we have all of it on our server.

I spent years building a 20tb media archive. I got paranoid I might get caught so I turned my back up drives into encrypted Veracrypt volumes. Before I had a chance to transfer my stuff to them my piece of crap QNAP NAS died and I couldn’t decrypt their proprietary RAID encryption.

Go open source kids!

I’m sorry for your loss. The media will remain in our hearts forever! But really, the rabbit hole for media server/NAS setups/RAID configs goes so deep I don’t know where to start or what to think sooo I just ignore it currently.

I don’t think you need to worry as much once you have the media. It’s the act of downloading and sharing where people get caught.
