or even pseudo-incriminated for attempting to maintain our own life.

It seems so stupid that I'm like a suspect for wanting an exchange of information without dropping my pants and bending over. No, I don't want cookies. Yes I want to read the article but no, I don't want to "sign up."

It makes me feel like being a f*cking hermit. But I prefer to pirate. Even though I'm not that good at it. Screw them. I got two private trackers, a VPN, and I hope that's enough.

Depends on which tracker. In general though invites and you get invites by association with relevant groups. Sometimes open registration occurs (though rarely) an other times the trakcer may do interviews.

It mostly comes down to time and patience.

I got a pretty letter from speck_t_rum once.

Been a paranoid ever since.

VPN will encrypt your traffic so your ISP can't spy on you. That's the whole point of a VPN.

But I wasn't even talking about vpns. Just private trackers and how to get into them.
