Someone upload this one to sourcehut. I'm really curious to see how Drew will response to DMCA like that
To help you pick the best VPN, we asked dozens of VPNs to detail their logging practices, how they handle torrent users, and more.
There's way too much hype over VPN Providers, but do not forget, you are routing all your traffic through their servers
As a general advice, if a VPN provider keeps logs of your activity, does not allow you to pay with crypto, and generally spends way too much on youtube ads is probably not an ideal choice.
Do not follow any advice/recommendation blindly, do your own research on which one offers the best service for your own needs.
Use firefox with arkenfox, then you wont have to enable DRM to stream videos
Thanks!
It's a must have add on, but it's still just an add on, we should know the basics of what's happening behind the scenes to sail the 7 seas.
The reason I posted that is to inspire some of you in creating fancy scripts that can easily do more than just downloading one video.
Getting started
To do this properly, you need to understand how those websites work.
For the shake of simplicity fellow "pirates", they utilize m3u
wiki link
m3u8
99% of the time.
You will also need yt-dlp
install it if you don't have already
Example on utilizing this knowledge
- Go to your favorite streaming site
- Simple press
F12
- Go to
Network
- Select
XHR
(XMLHttpRequest) - Filter URLs for
m3u8
- If you find more than one, just test them out, you will soon find the trick on your own :)
- Copy the URL
- Open a terminal and type
yt-dlp <your-copied-link>
Do it Ethically
Some may call us pirates, which I find really cool
But the true evil Pirates/criminals are the ones that keep the power to themselves and don't share it with others
Information is the only true power, and it should be free(free as in free speech) for all.

Recently learned how to downloaded 'protected' content and have to say things are pretty simple when you start learning the basics of how things work.
But its pretty hard to get started with, there is not much content for uploaders, at least that I can find easily. Do you have any recommendations to read on uploading content safely? Metadata etc.
