Im very paranoid about getting into piracy and im not sure if i should or it or not but there are so many things i want that i cant afford.
is there a secure linux os that i can use without a vpn? im pretty use to windows 10 but i was told linux mint is good for this kind of stuff, is that true?
My favorite setup was a headless Raspberry Pi Zero plugged in and hidden behind furniture in the common areas of a high-rise condo building where I rented a unit for a few months. They have gigabit Internet access. Remote into it, schedule a batch download, then retrieve it from the Zero later. It was cool, but inconvenient. Proof of concept only really.
Cool project but doesn’t really address OPs concerns.
For an anonymous, disposable seedbox? It seems like it does, though it’s way overkill.
It’s only partly anonymous as it’s still a location they were directly tied to. Not really something you want to be risking if having the law come after you is part of your threat model.
Still a cool project and definitely overkill for internet piracy 😅
Abandonable Tor nodes can also be built this way. Not cost effective, though.
Did anybody find it?
Nope. It was there for a year.
Huh. Mine disappeared inside of two weeks. Then Pi’s got impossible to find and I gave up on it.
I put mine in a black casing that basically makes it look like a power adapter. The uncovered board is too conspicuous.
So did I. I think somebody said, “Hey, free Raspberry Pi!” and that was that.
