I don't pirate anymore since I had to pay 1000€
my life sucks now.
Out of curiosity, were you using a private tracker? VPN? Just interested in the circumstances. Obviously something anyone who downloads has in the back of their minds. I remember getting a letter 20+ years ago, addressed to my dad from Verizon, to cut it out. I got smarter after that, or so I think.
no, I was 15.. well I still am, it wasn't that long ago, and I had been torrenting for 3 years, I believe, nothing ever happened. I also didnt know anything about private trackers, I tried getting into it once, but practically anything that costs money I would have to ask my parents for, and I'm too shy for that. Anyways, I was always saying "yeah I'm gonna get a VPN..." never did. Now my parents had to pay the price for that. I might get a VPN when I get my own bank account and stuff.. in 3 years, so I'm responsible for it.
Well sorry to hear that dude, I was also probably fifteen when I got my letter from Verizon, maybe 16 or 17. Don't let the passion for sticking out to the man fade, but not doing it on Mom and Dad's Internet is commendable.
Did it actually affect your life more than having to pay a fine?
yes, I now have to use shitty streaming sites that are slow, unreliable and have absolutely no "rare" content. Also I won't be able to build a collection, which leaves me feeling incomplete and miserable. I don't know why this bothers me so much, but it does.
Ouch, where?
Bet it's Germany lol
100% Germany, my sister got hit with almost 3k€ for torrenting Young Sheldon 🤦
The real crime here is pirating Young Sheldon.
yup! Germany. Warner Bros came for me.
