Just use a vpn, always, and spectrum has no idea what you’re doing
Or, I could pay the $9/month for a server that has a 10gig connection to the rest of the world and do my part by leaving them seeding for longer than I would otherwise.
What service offers that and doesn't mind torrenting? (Legal torrenting ofc, we wouldn't ever dream of discussing illegal topics here 🏴☠️)
I'm using rapidseedbox.com, they don't ask for any personal info and I paid with crypto. The lowend plan I'm using is $9/month and doesn't offer many options aside from sftp access, 3 or 4 torrent apps you can switch between and a couple of other things. The higher end plans offer a shit load more like plex, etc. They will send a dmca notice and then like 12 hours later delete the offending content. I've learned that you can just restart the torrent and re-download it and all is well going forward.
There are a ton of other options out there for seedboxes.
Would love a seed box recommendation if you have one to share? My new place is off grid so with limited power prefer to offload a 24 hour server elsewhere so I can be a responsible seeder.
I'm using rapidseedbox.com but there are a ton of others out there. I tried them because they take crypto and I don't have to give them any info whatsoever.
