Just a reminder to update your Winrar, there has been a big vulnerability in the .10 version of Winrar and some people have actually managed to exploit it. Someone linked an article for it, the other day but I can’t find it rn
setting the network mode on the application docker to the gluetun service
As long as you do this, you’re good
If you’ve got a symmetrical gigabit line, you’d be a great fit for hosting a high-bandwidth I2P node, it helps the whole network scale and makes things faster for everyone. Though I’d recommend reading more about i2p before diving in.
I’m not the only person who thinks Kill switches don’t live up to their name
Bind always. Kill switches don’t work reliably. https://www.reddit.com/r/torrents/comments/1hq8uh4/comment/m4o8n35/
Kill switches can fail. Always bind your client to your vpn adapter. https://www.reddit.com/r/torrents/comments/1hq8uh4/comment/m4u9xod/
While using a kill-switch is a good step, it may not provide complete protection. Combine it with binding your VPN network interface to qBittorrent for added privacy and security https://www.reddit.com/r/surfshark/comments/1jbf8sj/comment/mi1h8bc/
Killswitches aren’t perfect. Binding is. https://www.reddit.com/r/surfshark/comments/1jbf8sj/comment/mhtpc5t/
Yep binding is so much better than killswitch. https://www.reddit.com/r/surfshark/comments/1jbf8sj/comment/mhu9gip/
torrenting with kill switch turned on, leaks? https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonVPN/comments/1261e5h/torrenting_with_kill_switch_turned_on_leaks/
That’s not a killswitch, that’s binding your connection. It literally says that right in the screenshot. smh, kids these days. Killswitch is managed by your VPN, totally separate thing, and can still leak your IP at times. https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/v2d3gp/comment/iatgezx/
I’ve had an occurrence even in windows with kill-switch on where the app closed and downloads continued. https://www.reddit.com/r/unRAID/comments/1hmihfe/comment/m3ubxj8/
Instead of kill switch (which fails a lot on many VPNs) you should bind your VPN to your torrent client. https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonVPN/comments/1b7b6j3/comment/ktm29z8/
Bind interface. Kill switch is the wrong way to go. https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/1937alg/comment/khaey90/
Kill switch is not reliable and can expose your IP. Please search for “how to bind vpn qBitTorrent” and follow the directions to bind the internet adapter to your vpn. That is the only safe way. https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/1j4023b/comment/mg4iy2q/
Bind qBit to your VPN. This stops all torrent traffic if your VPN drops it’s connection or you forgot to connect. It’s more reliable than a Kill Switch. https://www.reddit.com/r/qBittorrent/comments/ud2k5m/comment/i6ejaeg/
Kill switches are unreliable, use binding instead https://www.reddit.com/r/torrents/comments/174pwzi/comment/k4aocdo/
Bruh needs to learn how to bind his VPN & Torrent Client… Y’all, kill switches are NOT good enough. https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/1b5mpgp/comment/kt6a10y/
Bind your connection. Kill switches are functionally useless. https://www.reddit.com/r/torrents/comments/1c5yt4n/comment/kzxnzce/
These are what I could find in the last 15 minutes, hopefully this is enough.
It’d be even better and safer, if you pick Docker containers over VMs. Give them a shot, they’ll require less resources and would be overall much more efficient for a this purpose.
Kill switches aren’t as reliable, binding your VPN to your torrent client is the only sure fire way to ensure you don’t leak traffic through your home IP.
It’s still new so that’s expected, as more and more people start using it, the speeds will get better automatically.
There’s also private trackers, you won’t need a VPN if you get your torrents from them.
Wanna torrent anonymously and don’t wanna pay for a VPN? Get into I2P
If you’re talking about online multiplayer games, they’re server sided so no. Though, for some games, there are people who will sell you battle pass codes for cheaper because they buy them in countries with a weak currency, it all depends on the game.
You’re not executing a mkv or a pdf
You’re half wrong and half right, .mkv files are completely safe but the same can’t be said about .pdf files, attackers can embed malicious code, such as JavaScript or hidden executables, within a PDF file.
People really underestimate the capabilities of this .pdf file format. I remember some time ago, someone managed to run doom inside a .pdf file.
It gives you literal FLAC files, how are they gonna be malicious!?
People need to stop over analyzing things, its just a qobuz ripper, people who want to help the community provide them with Qobuz tokens that don’t expire as often as Deezer, now they just rip from Qobuz on your request, as simple as that. Firehawk is also building a similar site from scratch.
