<p>Online piracy, illegally acquiring copyrighted material, has <a href="https://thedroidguy.com/piracy-sites-are-thriving-because-streaming-services-became-the-very-thing-they-were-supposed-to-replace-1269042">been increasing</a> recently, as legitimate streaming services make it more difficult for consumers to watch content. In an attempt to prevent people from unwittingly breaking the law, here is how you avoid being a pirate.</p>
<h2>Torrenting</h2>
<p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bittorrent">BitTorrent</a> is a method for downloading a file from many other computers. It connects your computer to a peer-to-peer network of other computers, which allows the bandwidth needed for downloading a large file to be spread across the different endpoints. While there are many legitimate uses for this technology, it is unfortunately the most popular method to pirate content.</p>
<p>To avoid pirating with BitTorrent, do not install torrenting software <a href="https://links.0x212.com/bookmarks/shared?q=%23software+%23torrent">like these</a>, and be sure to block torrent tracker websites <a href="https://links.0x212.com/bookmarks/shared?q=%23torrent+%23tracker">like these</a>.</p>

<p>Of course, some pirates avoid torrenting in their homes and choose to use <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seedbox">a seedbox</a>, which is a rented server for downloading and uploading, or seeding, torrents.</p>
<p>It is crucial to block <a href="https://links.0x212.com/bookmarks/shared?q=%23seedbox">known seedboxes</a> on your network, in order to prevent anybody in your home to participate in pirating elsewhere.</p>
<h2>Streaming</h2>
<p>Sadly, BitTorrent is not the only way to pirate copyrighted material. Devious people run websites <a href="https://links.0x212.com/bookmarks?q=%23piracy%20%23streaming">such as these</a>, which stream copyrighted material in the browser. These websites are dangerous to visit because of the malicious adverts on the website. Pirates block adverts with software like <a href="https://ublockorigin.com/">Ublock Origin</a>, <a href="https://pi-hole.net/">Pi-Hole</a>, <a href="https://adguard.com/">AdGuard</a>, or <a href="https://nextdns.io/">NextDNS</a>, so be sure to not install those.</p>

<p>Remember, only you can prevent piracy. Avoid what I have shared above, and you will be safe in your own home.</p>
