@piracy How do i check if a crack is safe or not?

I'm trying to install a cracked version of davinci resolve on my pc, but I don't know if it's safe. is there a way to check easily?

BlackSkinnedJew ,

What about a virtual machine? I have years WO doing that stuff but I used to do that years ago.

KillingTimeItself ,

your main concern would be files. If you run something as your usual suspect user, that software can do pretty much whatever it feels like with files under those permissions, unless sandboxed.

Not quite malware, but if someone wanted to troll you a goof rm -rf isn’t hard.

@piracy Do cracked apps still send data to Google/Android or they bypass them?

I was wondering if while using (trusted) cracked apps they still send data to Google, Android, Meta, etc. or to the app owner.

hexagonwin ,

On android with root what’s the best firewall to use? The ‘rootless’ ones using Android VPN features are really inefficient.

Draconic_NEO ,

It really depends on how it was cracked and the use case of the app. Some of them may have it patched out but others won’t. Play it safe unless you know for sure.

Is ProtonVPN worth it?

@piracy

Got reminded of this while reading about ProtonMail. The reason I haven't gotten into proper is that I don't have a VPN for torrenting, and the reason I don't have a VPN is that I don't . So it would be nice if I got a good VPN while myself.

Will ProtonVPN rat me out to Comcast? I know some VPNs don't hide what you're downloading from your ISP, for reasons I don't fully understand.

nullboi ,

I’m not the smartest bowl in the… bowl drawer, but wouldn’t removing port forwarding just affect speed? Or would it stop torentting with Mullvad entirely? I just topped my account off lol

landlubber ,

I know I’m really late to this thread:

The 3 VPNs I’d recommend for privacy are Proton, AirVPN, and Mullvad.

When it comes to torrenting, AirVPN is probably the best. It has port forwarding, a no logging policy, and general trust in the community. Proton is similar, but it’s port forwarding is not as good as AirVPN’s version.

When it comes to privacy, Mullvad is the best imo. You can pay in cash. They removed port forwarding recently, but they’re in a privacy oriented country, and when authorities raided them, they had none of the users’ data (the raid being the reason for port forwarding to disappear).

You don’t need port forwarding to torrent, but without it, you may have slower speeds and trouble downloading older/rarer torrents (it effects the number of seeders/peers you can connect to). I’ve been torrenting without port forwarding and have yet to run into a torrent I can’t download in a reasonable time. Highly overrated imo, but incredibly important if you want to seed (I’ve still had no problems, there might be a couple leeches, but the vast majority can be seeded to). Considering you have Comcast, however, I’m guessing you have a data cap, and with that seeding becomes rather difficult. If you really want to pass it on with the data cap, than a seedbox would be the easiest way. Without port forwarding or a seedbox, and especially with a datacap without either of those, you won’t be able to use private trackers (personally I don’t recommend them unless you can’t find content anywhere else, my advice running counter to many in the piracy community).

You’re not going wrong with any of those 3 VPNs. Mullvad for privacy (torrents work just fine, don’t believe the people convincing you otherwise, and if you’re concerned with seeding, then a seedbox will take care of uploading for you). AirVPN if you want a good privacy reputation and port forwarding, or Proton if you prefer them (their privacy is fine, their port forwarding is inferior).

I’ll also mention Windscribe, which is not as good as the above three, and I don’t know as much about. But it’s the only other one I can think of that might be worth it, though I strongly recommend one of the above 3 first.

Stay away from (most VPNS pay for advertising or astroturf, so always be careful when selecting):

PIA (yes, they were proven not to log… And then bought out by Kape (former name Crossrider), a spyware company. The parent company is not privacy oriented, no matter how much PIA simps want you to believe otherwise. Look into it yourself. I loved PIA before they were bought out!)

NordVPN (lol, just stay away, trust me. You can always search for previous NordVPN incidents.).

AppleTV hardware now supports Tailscale, with exit nodes.

I am astonished that Apple allowed this blatant circumvention of region coding, but they did.

Get it while it’s hot, I guess.

HughJanus ,

This can also theoretically help get around Netflixes password sharing restrictions

This is the interesting bit here. I assume others will follow in Netflix’s steps shortly (Netflix made a fuckton of money from this) but this would also help you circumvent this crackdown with your Apple subscription…

Kbobabob ,

Yeah, I noticed they added some stuff and annoyingly tried putting it first. I just hid the crap i didn’t want. The live TV actually has a lot of options. I don’t really watch much TV these days but there’s been plenty to choose from so far. I think having the lifetime Plex pass makes it different.

Any recommendations of streaming app for iphone? I use stremio on all my other devices, and currently just have a tab for movie-web.app on my phone, but looking for a better solution.

aPirate ,

fmhy.net/android-iosguide#ios-streaming This could provide some options I don’t have apple devices myself so my knowledge is minimal.

Yes infuse is great for iPhone best $10 a yr I spend

A few weeks into the Premiere League season, anyone have a go-to streaming site now?

legion OP ,
@legion@kbin.social avatar

@CheekyYoghurts Yeah, but any consistent streamers on there that you prefer? Every game I have to sift through the various ones that were posted. Years ago I used only Dubzstreams but he sucks now

CheekyYoghurts ,

No, sorry. I only use it once a week or so to watch a match. I usually just choose a stream and if that fails at some point I just another in the list.

Any sites you guys use for good quality Premiere League soccer streams? Rip navmix :(

legion OP ,
@legion@kbin.social avatar

@kWazt Yeah but the issue is finding one site I can use every game that also doesn't have a massive delay from live so I can watch in sync with my friends

ArtificialLink ,

Sportsurge.net

Idk if it has good soccer stuff but its never let me down on anything else.

Does anyone have any links for reverse engineering Spotify DRM? I didn't necessarily need it for myself, have plenty of music, and it would be a pretty inefficient means of piracy vs. BitTorrent or like yt-dlp, but I'm curious how it works.

It always seems to me like the analog gap is particularly gaping with audio, and I wonder how far down to the metal it's protected.

Zotify can download music directly from Spotify. You can bulk download or search individual songs, playlists, artists etc to download.

You need to have an account and a having premium allows you to get full quality downloads.

anothercatgirl , (edited )

What does it mean in terms of ethics when a song is not on Spotify and is not considered a song (is just a generic video) through YouTube Music? It seems to happen a lot to video game OSTs, especially Touhou music.

an analysis of historical video game availability shows that only 13% of classic video games are currently commercially available across consoles and time periods, and only 3% of games prior to 1985

CoffeeBot ,

Some one game that comes to mind is one of my favourite RTS’s Lord of the Rings Battle for Middle Earth (and it’s expansion Rise of the Witch King). It was published by EA. Unfortunately they no longer have the license for LOTR content so they can’t legally sell this game and you can’t buy it. Thankfully it’s still alive due to the piracy community and you can download a copy with all the cracks and whatnot.

@piracy does anyone here eat ass
