Used it once, cost me €840.

With torrents you can get a film in minutes. With popcorn you are exposed the entire time you watch the film.

In Germany they monitor peer connections and send a payment demanding an out of court settlement. After two years they escalate to a court appearance in a remote town. If you don't show, you lose and they turn it over to debt collection.

But I have to say Birdman was a great film.

This is exactly why I use a VPN. Last thing anyone needs is to be inconvenienced by BS laws bought buy special interests.

One of the best solutions out there.

Which is illegal.

And torrents (of copyrighted content) aren't? You're completely missing the point of this thread.

That's kind of the point, the illegal solution is better than the legal one.
