Since we are not on Reddit and out of the tentacles of DMCA, can we freely paste safe-to-share pirated links without any obfuscation and hints?

To not scare any other instances from defederalization and for the piracy to reach as broadly as it can, we need to be within all “legal” limits. The subreddit survived for so long (and is now desired by reddit themselves? Lol) because our incredible mods kept it so. So let’s continue with that trend here. Rule 3 also makes us all better pirates in the long run.

You can share as long as you keep one degree of separation. Prefer base64 links

I don’t think we’re technically out of DMCA. Instance owners are still responsible for the content on their servers (if they receive a DMCA takedown request), at least in the US.

This. All laws still apply. Still gotta tip-toe to be on the safe side and CYA.

DMCA is a legal thing, not a reddit thing. so it still applies. iirc the rule here is 1 degree of separation or obfuscated links.

Basically you should always assume that an irate FBI agent is looking at your posts.

Make base64 code and it should be fine, I think the maker of this instance said magnet links are fine too and general looks to websites just not directly to the content as in fit girls page would be fine just not anything on it.

But I bet they will comment at some point

I hope the instance is running in a Sweden or Switzerland server haha…

I think you can share anyway but your risk to being taken down.

Is Finland safe? sopuli.xyz is from Finland.

The most probably it is just make sure to use a VPN for extra protection ✌️👍.

Instance runners and mods can take down the content to avoid any legal issues in the case there is any anyway but they could not be able to identify where you physically at.

Not sure why you would think this place is out of reach of DMCA.

As for what you can post, check the rules

Rule 3:

Don’t request or link to specific pirated titles

If the instance is running in a country that doesn’t honor DMCA takedowns then yeah it would be totally in the clear. I don’t know if this one is or isn’t, but the technology allows for it.

Even then it isn’t a good idea. Any instance that is federated and has users of this sub would also be hosting the links and is required to respond to DMCA. The only thing that direct link sharing would lead to is the defederation of this instance.
