Men under 25 genuinely do not know how to pirate
They can’t torrent
They can’t copy paste a crack file
They can’t even install adblock and get 50 viruses from streaming sites
Just let that sink in

I'm thinking of writing a 'how to use the modern internet guide' that includes basic shit like pirating, adblock, useful add-ons etc.
But I don't know how to safely monetize it and I'm pretty sure promoting piracy infringes on copyright law in my country.
Please
>monetize
christ...
>working for free
ngmi
>pirates your book
hahaha owned 😉
It's a pro-piracy guide, it'd obviously be available for free but I'd want it to be possible for people who save some money to send a little my way.
donations should be fine in that case. Just having a shitty subscribe page linked should be enough unless you wanna risk a direct paypal link.
brb, pirating your guide
It's not simple anymore, you need arcane shit like umatrix and a dns blackhole to browse in peace.
God knows how video adblockers even work because they seem to get defeated every month.
I just run uBlock Origin and I never see adds anywhere. It's worked fine for years
uBlock and sponsorblock
Aside from astroturfing and porn ads (because those often times are embedded) I haven't seen an ad in forever. Every time I have to browse on a machine or phone without adblock, I just think "how the frick are people still using this shit?".
There needs to be a book about surviving the information age. Everything from the internet never forgets to how to handle the temptation to just farm dopamine all day, maybe some baudrillard media literacy ala "The Gulf war never happened" for good measure, final bit about Edward bernaise and you're up to speed.

>Everything from the internet never forgets
Lol, lmao really.
People are getting fired over posts they made under their real names well over a decade ago.
The internet might make your favorite content unavailable, but it'll never forget the faux pas you made if it can be connected to you.
>Book
Anyone who'd be willing to read it would naturally pick up the information through osmosis
reddit literally has all of this and for free

Surely you can easily get around this by saying "do not do these steps"
Getting zoomies to try any of this stuff at all is the real challenge. They seem scared of technology. I've tried to introduce piracy and ad blocking to my zoomer relatives, and they refuse my help even though they b***h and moan about ads constantly. My almost 60 year old mother is more tech savvy than your average zoomer.
When you sniff your own farts so much you dellude yourself into a paralell universe
20+ yo zoomie here. I don't know why they would be afraid to use adblock but I am deathly afraid of torrents. I don't want to have the isp figure it out and my house broken into because I did some small thing wrong. Downloads are just safer.
That literally never happens. The worst they'll do is send you a letter threatening to shut off your service. Which they won't do since they want to keep their customers.
your google and youtube search history have told them more about what you're doing on the internet than a torrent
use a VPN
homie just use Tribler
Sorry not into gay hookups
bot-tier reply
Same situation with me but I'm a zoomer trying to teach my younger brother how to pirate
>My almost 60 year old mother is more tech savvy than your average zoomer.
No they aren't lol
they are
60 year olds lived and worked in the time when files and folders were actively used
you zoomers only know surface smartphone usage
>they are
They aren't, I assure you
>60 year olds lived and worked in the time when files and folders were actively used
60 year olds were 20 when DOS came out, assuming they even had access to a computer
>you zoomers
I'm 37, moronic Black person. Your boomer parent is not more tech literate than children who have had handheld computers thrusted at them since the age of 3, unless they magically switched job occupations in the late 90's to be a codemokney/IT worker during the dot com boom
Zoomers fall for phone and email scams even more than crusty old fricks with dementia. They are the dumbest generation to ever live.
Dont talk about piracy then, tormenting is about media file sharing
r/piracy mega thread already exists
>monetize
It's honestly good this way.
If new generations are moronic that means you can keep going and pirate shit and its less likely they go all out to stop piracy when zoomies just buy without a second thought anyway.
Honestly, my biggest fear is that I had to pay for literally anything online, from watching youtube to downloading games, roms etc.
I'm not a super pirate or something, I buy games on sale cuz I'm lazy, but I'm NOT paying 20bucks for roms or 60 for worse remakes/remasters.
I genuinely find it funny how zoomers grew up with fricking super computers in their hands at an early age but are technologically illiterate morons who don't even know what file directories are. What the hell went wrong
tech companies streamlining everything to make the user experience more accessible of whatever they say, even a toddler can use a smartphone well enough to download apps and watch youtube videos, you don't have to understand technology in the slightest to use it anymore. look at windows with each version being a dumbed down version of the last with basic features from previous versions made inaccessible by default.
>monetize a piracy guide
lmao.
All you can do is link donations, and even then it will get some gays mad.
Assisting in committing a crime is a crime itself in most countries. So you better check with a lawyer first.
Just do it for free and post it on Ganker
>monetization
Imagine telling people how to pirate stuff and get money from this. Best idea I ever heard.
Don't be reatrded.
You're not promoting piracy. You're teaching people how to use p2p servives to download files.
I support the idea, but your comment on monetization makes me want to throttle you.
MONETIZATION IS WHY THE INTERNET IS AS FRICKED AS IT IS, STOP THINKING ABOUT MONEY FOR FIVE SECONDS YOU FRICKING israelite.
the west can stay moronic and piracy will flourish just fine as long as russia still exists.

that statement doesn't make any sense. it is accusatory and rude. i think you should apologize.

Now that you point that out it's kinda unnerving
homie saw too much booba
i'm 21 and have no problems doing any of that. it's not an age thing, normies are & always will be moronic
yep. people who pay attention to things and actually read are the ones who are cucked.
Sounds like an american problem
no its outside for a reason
If everyone knew how to use adblock, something far more aggressive would replace ads.
Just like F2P games, we need dumb people to keep the boat afloat for everyone else.
Most people already use adblock on their PC, but most traffic comes from phones so it doesn't matter
You don't use adblock on your phone?
I mainly talk about youtube here, there are alternatives with no ads but somehow they're even worse than the official app
I always used YT from the browser. Ublock with that and it works fine.
>I mainly talk about youtube here, there are alternatives with no ads but somehow they're even worse than the official app
You clearly haven't used the alternatives. Once I switched over from the garbage official app to the custom user made ones, it was like my eyes were finally opened. The difference was like heaven and earth. I am never going back.
Which one do you use
>even worse than the official app
I can see how one would call NewPipe worse, but it's great for no account yt and downloading
I can see how you'd download some shitty cloned newpipe with malware from first page of google or the play store and consider it horrible as a result
But in 2023 we have Youtube ReVanced
And unlike Vanced they made a one button patcher app so they don't actualy distribute any google IP and are safe probably for decades
the step to set it up are as follows:
>download revanced patcher from github
>download microg from that same github
>download latest recommended version of youtube apk from apkmirror
>install patcher and microg
>use patcher to patch youtube apk
>install revanced apk
>login
done, you get:
no ads anywhere
background play
sponsor block
return youtube dislike
slide controls
shorts removed
and other QoL improvements
you can tinker in the setting of the app for hours to get it personalized, but Im good with stock settings
I'm not posting links as that's my way of gatekeeping absolute morons
I tried vanced a couple months ago and was immediately greeted with ads
literally haven't mention vanced once
vanced has been cease and desisted by google and abandoned, the last version which you tried is like over a year old
This is a rework called ReVanced and it's up to date with no ads while and doesn't distriburte google code so won't get struck down as easily
Oh ok, I'll try it out then
if you can't figure it out on your own i suppose you could do what that guy
said and get the already patched version on mobilism
There is also SkyTube but i never tried it
You could also just
>go to mobilism
>grab the top downloaded revanced version
It's so easy
I like doing things myself
unless it's extracting encryption keys for emulators
>Start video you want to listen to
>Close lid/turn off scree
>Proceed to listen
>Open screen while listening.
>ReVanced starts the video from the beginning.
Is there a way to unfrick that piece of shit "feature"?
I love newpipe, but
>guru meditation
Stop promoting revanced. I don't want it to get nuked by big g
vanced still works. does revanced fix that bug where you click on youtube links and it just insultingly opens the play store like youtube isn't installed or is that hardcoded to be fricked and awful?
>that bug where you click on youtube links and it just insultingly opens the play store like youtube isn't installed
I have not encountered that. Clicking links works fine for me, the only thing that has stopped working with OG vanced is that I now occasionally get an ad on the home screen, which is annoying but not a deal breaker.
replicate: search for something like a recipe on google, and click any video results at the top. this is the only context where it opens the play store instead of vanced for me. if i text someone a youtube link it will also warn me that youtube is not installed any time the link comes into the viewport. i actually don't have youtube app installed i just assumed vanced is set up to handle all youtube links.
i had to think it was programmed this way on purpose to be viciously anti-competitive. if revanced fixes this i'll install it.
i know there is probably a setting that fixes this natively i just don't frickin care enough to bother.
You can use adblock on phones too, it's just that most people either don't know or don't care about that (reduced old-styled BUY™ spam due to personalized ads and the occasional joke ads, people feel less worn out when the ad occasionally shows something they want to see).
But it's the same thing, let them pay the bills for everyone else.
Youtube ads are fricking wild sometimes
My frickin sides
Forget the strippers and the amongus and the indian adaptation of a "big sister molesting dumb boy" doujin, how the frick do you play strip pop-it?
We don't need F2P games
but we do need an F2P internet
seems like google is just going to gut adblockers with web manifest v3 as soon as the negative backlash dies down.
the biggest deciding factor towards whether zoomers use adblockers or not is if they use a computer or are pure phonegays, your grandma is more likely to put an adblocker on her phone than a college aged adult these days.
I hope I get killed by the vaccines on the subway before this happens
>didn't read the lower-right text
Even the FBI is recommending adblockers now because even the first page of google is spitting out malware ridden ads.
So if they do block adblockers they're gonna drum up a shitstorm.
>Fbi recommends adblockers especially Brave
What ad blockers can I use on mobile?
Yeah maybe in your sub 90 iq country
you can get free media from library.
Feels good being in my late 20s
i literally never fell for the streaming meme.
i have dozens of terabytes of shit downloaded
with the money i save by pirating everything i buy more external hard drives
yes they can, these mfers have some github scripts or some shit just to block ads on twitch. something normal adblocker plugins don't do.
Early 20's here. I only finish games I pirate, every game I buy gets shelved after maybe 3 hours
>pirates 10 dollar indie games
>buy EA indie game
>a month later it starts putting troony shit in the game
>gender neutral pronouns
>every model is suddenly uglier
>*delete game from your steam library*
I'll never buy an indie game again in my life
what game?
>pirates FREE games
I did that with helltaker, because I didn't want to have to run steam just to open the game.
>playing a FOTM fanart farm
I'm sorry for your loss
It's pretty decent honestly. Was a throwback too. The gameplay reminded me of the kinds of flash games you'd play online in the early 2000s.

Your generation will be remembered as a generation of trannies, die in a fire.
Holy projection, most trannies are anime loving millennials. Just admit you put zoomers down to feel better about yourself
How is a little bit of diversity bad again dare i ask?
I'm happy about that, there's never enough gatekeeping to prevent morons from ruining things.
He who wants to find the way will find it on its own.
Everybody knows how to download a torrent. Everybody knows how to apply a crack. Everyone can follow through a more sophisticated guide if there are more actions than replacing an exe. Nobody cares for this shit anymore, because when you stop being fricking poor, that shit is no longer required. And yes, I am yet to see 1 male human who does not have uBlock installed
Theres not a single person in the world that doesnt know how to download shit.
You are not special for knowing how to download something, maybee special ED for thinking that your meme is real.
Every game I have tried to pirate that made me copy and paste a crack has never worked.
If the game is not pirateable via a simple install like on fit-girl, I do not bother.
Simple as
Your antivirus might be “protecting” you
God I miss those early years of Netflix. Absolutely everything was tossed on there. I don't even care about price I care about availability. I would pay fricking cable TV prices for a very high quality, all encompassing service that just has *everything*. Piracy doesn't even cut it, so few people torrent anymore that it's next to impossible to find good rips of many less popular things, and absolutely impossible to find seeders.
Sometimes you get lucky with those "watch online free" sites but even then, it's a gamble whether you can find less popular stuff that way. Fricking hell.
How about just buying a DVD?
Many less popular shows and movies literally never got dvd releases. And if they did sometimes you just can't find them listed on ebay, and I hate spending money on something physical that I likely will just use once.
I completely agree that dvds at this point are back in style and for great reasons but I wish it wasn't this way.
game piracy has shit the bed pretty hard for old stuff if it's not on gog, like you said there's frick all seeders anymore because all the core people who still give a shit are on private trackers and the poverty stricken Russian/South American/SEA types that made up the bulk of the seeders on public trackers back in the day are now content with playing mindless F2P shite
I keep hearing that zoomers actually have lots of issues using computers because they prefer using their phones instead, explains why so many things in various medias went to shit so fast
No game piracy has never been easier but its videogames that have never been worse, using torrents is also pointless
Dumb esl poster
There are some games that I keep ISOs stored away in an external drive because you can't fricking find any seeded torrents for them anymore. Like AvP 2, I remember I wanted to play that game again some years ago and the only working download I found was some russian torrent with 3 seeds, plus that game isn't sold anywhere because of some copyright bullshit. I don't know if there are other places to download it from now but since it's a game I often replay I'm not gonna risk it, that ISO is staying with me forever.
good. piracy already gets too much attention. we need to gatekeep it
zoomers literally barely understand the concept of folders, and this is not an exaggeration
You would know
good zoomies are not even human and don't deserve any pirating
I am 20 and have been doing all those things since i was twelve, i think yeah you do get a lot of complete morons but i have met alot of people who were waaaay further down the rabbit hole then me too.
I think over its just more polorized with most going the moron route of buying streaming services and crap
Last game I bought I bought in 2016
I pirate everything I possibly can. There's a very, very small number of games I'm interested in that currently have Denuvo or some other nonsense and I'm not planning on buying those right now either
Most zoomers aren't using that shit any more and have everything uploaded and set up on google drive. Just download a pre-configured game in under 3 seconds and go. The problem is shit like this is often gated behind a discord or some troony has to hamfist their unnecessary mods into it.
>mfw im living in a 3rd world country
>mfw piracy is "illegal" where i live
>mfw the goverment/copyright holders do not care
>torrent game
>takes like 8 hours to download
>finally unzip it and it doesn't even work(like your dick)
>get an email from my ISP that they'll cancel my service if I torrent again
Man frick all this. All that time wasted.
>takes like 8 hours to download
What are you attemping to download? there are no games that take this much time to download? you're overreacting anon and you should stop projecting, simply dilate and rotate.
>They can’t torrent
>They can’t copy paste a crack file
Good
So morons can stop whining about piracy hurting developers, because Black person cattle won't pirate and small number of enthusiast who prefers different ways of media distribution would hardly put a dent of revenues.
Born 98 June, so I guess I'm 24?
I've been pirating all my life
It's not like I'm poor either, I have no debt. Neither is there any in my immediate family
I do it because I can
OP made this thread to feel superior to a person that only exists in his head. Laugh.
I learned to pirate games when I was 8. You guys started at 25?
>SSTOADSTOOL
>Is a sailing ship
Damn illiteracy.
my gf pirates for me
i pirated when i was 10 and im only 23 you dumbass
I’ve been outta the game too long and all the sites I used to use have been filled top to bottom with malware
This is honestly great. I figured I would be the tech expert for generations that came before me, but that I would be the pleb needing assistance, replaced by the new generations as I got older. Instead it has worked out that locked down systems have turned the new generations moronic, so I'm still the expert and probably always will be.
good, we need most moron Black personcattle paying.
not everyone can pirate, or the market wouldn't exist.
don't teach morons. gatekeep.
I can torrent. Problem is that I'm not taking any safe measures to avoid possible C&D's for doing so, but I have torrented and seeded
The frick is the second thing though
And who doesnt have ad-block? My older sister is a millenial who streams and doesnt have ad-block, fricking told her to do so when she was watching a movie from an online stream site, to which the same excuse was given "if something happens, it happens". People who live under such a dismissive philosophy (and yes, she'd travel to the dirtiest, scummiest country with absolutely little precaution) only face a sense of regret and self preservation until the "bad end" actually happens
>The frick is the second thing though
What part of copy/pasting a crack file are you struggling with, anon?
Never heard of people doing this, I know about copy paste and know about crack files, but dont have any idea using both unless its some on the nose shit, in which case I'm already well aware
It's literally just talking about finding the crack, maybe a cracked exe or whatever, copying it, and pasting it over the original uncracked exe. It kind of blows my mind that you could know about torrents but not know how to apply cracks, but I suppose a lot of torrents nowadays are pre-cracked, so I guess it makes some sense.
Some torrents or downloads come with the game files and the crack seperate, or sometimes you download/otherwise obtain the clean game files and get a crack from somewhere else, then copy/paste it in yourself. That's all it means, there's no secret tech.
Millennials would like to believe they're any better than zoomers, wouldn't they. Can't wait till every game has Denuvo so you obnoxious homosexuals can't grandstand over being able to torrent of all things
zoomers are too moronic to pirate which is why they get so mad at it
I bet zoomers don't even know what Daemon tools are, or Nero and burning CD's
Good. Modern windows has integrated ISO support and CD is a defunct media format.
why the frick would they need to? daemon tools and other programs like it have been obsolete for years and i dont even remember the last time ive seen a PC with a disc drive.
But I'm 22 and can do all of those things. You are thinking of younger teenagers who grew up with consoles
no, op is completely right
your generation grew with mobile phones and they have extremely simplified UIs which is why you kids turned out so moronic
>Zoomers can't do X
<I'm a zoomer and I can do X
>T-that doesn't count!
You're so far down your own generalizations that the idea of zoomers who can pirate is unfathomable to you. You unironically believe everything you read online
The only reason why, is youtube and google blocking content that shows you how to get torrents. If you search for something like that now, you get F2P games and links to forums and videos talking about how you'll get a virus and the FBI knocking on your door if you illegally download anything.
People are mostly a result of their environment.
>They can’t even install adblock
This shit is a litmus test. There are so many people I would consider smarter and more capable in life than me that can't figure this shit out.
Seething zoomie spotted
millennials are the epitome of online seething. yeah we get it, you're old and out of touch. you can stop trying to be proud of that now. also, thanks for being the generation which constitutes all of the school teachers who turn kids into blm trans gays
Adblocks are infested spyware so nice try you rat israelite
fixed
FIXED
At least now they actually look like eyes.
>western "art"
Fixed it for real this time.
I still remember the first thing I torrented. Fricking Advent Children. I even bragged to my parents that I'd gotten a free movie 'cause I was a dumb kid and they called me an idiot and said the movie looked like shit.
their loss
They can’t even install adblock
Fricking this. How do these people live?
Good, I don't need these gays drawing attention to my resources
https://iknowwhatyoudownload.com
Well Ganker how well did you do?
I really hope you're using a VPN.
meme website, it literally never shows anything i've ever torrented even though i do it without a vpn
Im 20 years old and pirate pretty much 100% of all media I consume (while not living in a 3rd world shithole)
I'll admit most people my age can't pirate I'd imagine the tech literacy among zoomer nerds is still pretty high
Reality is for every generation for 90% of the population computers are just magic boxes that light up. Theres never any need to figure them out just get the it guy or your nerd friend to do it.
>consistently pirate stuff for over a decade
>use 500+ gb of bandwidth a month just on streaming/pirating/seeding
>never get an email once
>in the UK
all you have to do is not use a public tracker lol
And it will only get worse.
>excuses for piracy
I will never pirate. If a game is good, then I will play it. If a movie is good, then I will watch it.
If not, then I will not bother wasting my time with shit content at all. My efforts will be better spent elsewhere.
If you're a pirate stealing good vidya, you're just a israeli parasite.
If you're a pirate stealing bad vidya, then you're just a loser wasting data.
The sole reason that I'll support piracy is if you can't access content because of international sanctions or government restrictions.
>If I like it, then I'll buy it
You won't buy it.
Let me know when they start selling True Crime and Serious Sam The Next Encounter for the PC. Until then I will be pirating sixth gen games and older
>I need excuses to justify piracy
Tru, real pirates don't justify anything, we do it just cause
Them leaving money on the table by not reprinting or re-releasing old games is their problem, not mine. I'm not going to stop replaying games I own on my PC via piracy because the disks decided to wear out or some other mechanical malfunction
If I download someone's reaction image and post it later, did I pirate it?
Tbh men under 25 won't even get a job, you think they know how to use the Internet to do anything useful?
to be fair why would you want to get a job that pays $7.25 an hour 20-40 hours a week when I can make the same amount doing literally nothing from NEETbux?
>zoomer sees a .r00 file
This is me but I'm not young, I'm just moronic about this kind of shit. Best I've ever done in this area is torrent a bunch of fantasy novels and 'pirate' that grimoire thal game but I probably just followed a link in one of the kino threads we had at that time for that one.
Oh I guess I do never go near a streaming site without an adblocker and noscript plugin but that shit's easy.
This is stupid. You don't need multiple streaming services all at the same time.
Just switch off every month. Unlike TV it's just a few clicks to activate and deactivate your account.
It really depends on the person
I'm 18 and I've been torrenting and cracking since I was a kid
