Hi,
Sorry if this has been posted before but I’m looking at trying Usenet instead of torrents.
I’ve done some Googling and honestly, it’s a little overwhelming knowing what Usenet provider to use, where to get quality indexers and which download client would be the best.
If anyone has any resources or advice to help me sail the Usenet seas I would be eternally grateful!
can not know
Yes they can, the articles are named with the filename of the content that’s in it, and the data itself is unencrypted. But I wasn’t even talking about blocking uploads, just having content providers be able to take down existing content.
But get this, it’s even worse in Switzerland because the provider is also now forced to keep that same content from reappearing! This is called the “stay down” rule.
country where only uploading is forbidden
downloading computer games and software remains a crime
A yea, it seems that I misunderstood the part with hosting the file in parts with only ID… But you would have to let a file be deleted on all usenet servers in short time to kill a file since it will only be removed from the cache of the server you send the dmca claim to (similar to torrent basically)
And yea, pc software incl. some games are illegal due to licensing agreements
