How are Canada's wildfires "Americans destroying themselves?"

Agreed. Private-owned AI competing against humans for limited jobs in a capital based market is a nightmare.

Public-owned AI producing and providing for all is not.

AI was trained on the work of millions and is inhuman in its productive capabilities. It has no business being private owned

There's controversy over whether VPN + TOR is a good combo. Some say it's an added layer of anonymity, others say it could be decreasing anonymity because your VPN could be logging your traffic. Some also say the two don't mesh well. But honestly the juries out so everyone should probably come to their own conclusion

r/piracy has a great megathread of resources that we could copy over or borrow from. I just hate to have to go there for such a comprehensive list of resources. And I'd hate it even more to see it all be turned to the wind if Reddit decides to crush it under their heal.

Edit: Went ahead and linked to the r/piracy and r/freemediaheckyeah megathread backups here

Also, how do I safely download from these sites?

I thought there was a mirror on lemmy for r/piracy's spectacular megathread but I don't see it. Rough guides from a semi-noob:

Direct download:

  1. TOR with Ublock Origin add-on

  2. After downloading your file, upload it to virustotal.com and scan it. If it passes you're probably pretty safe.

Torrent:

  1. Find and copy your file magnet in TOR.

  2. Turn on VPN.

  3. Open qbittorrent with your connection bound to your VPN's network.

  4. Paste your magnet link when it prompts you and download.

  5. Once it's done downloading, upload it to virustotal to scan it.
