Rent a seedbox. They offer good transfer speeds and don't monitor your traffic. Then set up a VPN server with encrypted connection on the seedbox and have your friend connect through that when downloading/browsing illegal stuff.

The only risk involved then is that the seedbox provider reveals your data. But that's as secure as it gets unless your friends wants to use anonymous sim cards + hotspots for downloading.

For someone to be that bothered today and a female Very Happy with this it seems very odd that you would paste info to her about seed boxes and encryption. I take it she must be savvy then with the internet etc, and if so it surprises me why she would have to ask a 3rd party Very Happy

Just read a bit peculiar thats all Smile

What's wrong with paying 10 euro per month to get all you need - no ratio, no limits and security...? Scratch Head

I'm glad I'm still on Usenet, there everything is at one single place and will stay there for 1000+ days, yes 80% of the stuff has crypto headers now but I got (free) memberships on boards and nzb sites for that. (Trackers are not an option because of my abysmal upstream)

Very few uploaders use the "uber" filehosts that are completely free and offer maximum speeds, like Firedrive/Mega/180, so yeah.. having to pay to use the shitty "popular" hosts, or suffer the horrendous download speeds and wait/amount timers? No thank you. Torrents will always be the perfect fall back for most people Smile

I used usenet for years, but lately all the good series got removed before i was able to download them.
Now i use torrents for movies and series (it's much better than i thought) but i don't want to download games/applications from torrents, maybe i'm a bit to paranoid of virus problems.

if u download much u need a account that's for sure.
but if u just download like 2-3 series a week, 1-2 games and lets say 5 movies per month u don't need anything. zippyshare men, alsways 5mb/s for free...

u just need to be fast and ofc only new released stuff is available that way.
still better then uploading stuff to people and exposing my ip.

and isn't usenet even more then 10 euros /month?

Yeah, Zippyshare is fantastic.. it's another of those "not many uploaders use it" scenarios though. Unscrupulous dicks profiting from piracy prefer to use pay-per-click hosts >_>

Stay away from public trackers is all she needs, and even then there's not much risk in Belgium. That being said if she's afraid of ISP's giving data records away in the future: seedbox suffices with the encryption going on and most don't keep records of their clientele.

If she's not convinced... I've been downloading/uploading stuff from 1990 till 2012 in Belgium and never had a prob and in the last years that was a TB or two of data a month

Guess she got scared because of that bust of that guy/group that was offering most if not all Flemish stuff on the internet. But that was more because he was A. too big to not notice and B. too stupid because the use of social media and such. Some think they are bulletproof and can do whatever I guess

Oh and... don't monetize on the stuff. That's where they have 0 tolerance for.

actually i rather have them then some stuck upped nerd elite assholes.
"shit is closed men u will never get into this private tracker." or "upload or gtfo" ...yea i gtfo.

and like i said u won't get everything on zippyshare, but everything new released u will find there so u just need to be fast before it's gone.
otherwise buy an account on uploaded and load as much as u want cause u will find almost everything. doesn't matter how old.
also there is a new hoster oboom which is 29.99 euros for one year.
ofc maybe oboom is gone in a half year but then it was still a good price.

anything better then recieving a letter from the cops.
btw even if it would be legal. i don't want upload or share anything. Twisted Evil

Speaking of which, does anyone know sites like these:
http://purchasepremium.com/
that actually, you know, work?

Haven't tried that one but they have a bit cheaper prices that on the file host (something like $9 vs 9€). I'll probably go with the original host anyway, no chance of getting scammed there.

I think You Suspicious Be

even bitcoin is not anonymous... my IP is not solely used by myself and until now nobody in EU can claim a specific IP address is the e-identity of someone. but paying with credit card, paypal or bitcoins for a service which is solely used for piracy is not the smartest thing to get around the "plz hide my IP" issue Laughing

Sorry Sad

Really depends on what she wants to DL
If it's mainstream stuff then a private tracker would be enough. Moderately secured but you'd probably have to keep a ratio or donate ( aka pay) for some UL credit.
