So I know that if you torrent you should use VPN to avoid repercussions from government/companies ect. But what about ddls(for ex. Adobe products from monkrus), movie streaming or some things where a VPN wouldn’t make a difference such as activating Windows or office. Is there any safety things I should follow there or they don’t really care? I just really want to avoid any fines but don’t really wanna pay for a bunch of things. Thanks 👍

    With DDLs I’d be more worried about malware then fines.>

    yep, aways stay alert on malware popups and downloads on DDL sites. Use uBlock Origin with Firefox. Also, download DDLs only from trusted sites.

    I didn’t know Monkrus gave DDLs. I thought he only used public torrent trackers to host his torrents.
