I’m considering joining my first private tracker. It turns out that most of them need you to pass an interview connected through your home IP. I understand this is a reasonable way to filter scammers and duplicate accounts. Still, to those who did it, how do you feel knowing your main IP is stored and associated to your torrenting history?
Just use Usenet.
I guess you can say I’m a very old pirate when people shared ftps and call them pubs and downloading from bots on mirc kazzaa and emule. I never heard about usenet until I started using lemmy and since then it’s all I hear about lol. I tried to understand it but it feels very complex and cost money
