For the cost of one streaming subscription I’ve got all content, downloads at full speed and is private. Can’t imagine life without Usenet and sonarr/radarr now

Get yourself a nice newsgroup, and an nzb indexer(search site for newsgroups) . Install nzbget, sonarr and radarr and Google for the parts you get stuck on.

I recommend a 2nd newsgroup subscription at a different place, because (in layman’s terms) to appease the dmca strikes they delete a single file of the download, and chances are a different server deleted a different file, so your downloads are complete enough to parse the rest together.

Sounds mildly wonky and technical, my curiosity is piqued.

Can this be traced by the police or other state agencies? Or is this truly anonymous?

This is the one I used years ago: https://blog.harveydelaney.com/configuring-your-usenet-provider-and-indexer-with-sonarr-radarr/

The nuts and bolts should be the same. I imagine his recommendations on what backbones and newsgroups to subscribe to are out of date, though.
