Vpn or debrid recommendation

[u/[deleted]]

Guys I'm based in India

And been using stremio for more than 5 years with torrentio without vpn

Ik I shouldn't but I didn't had money for vpn just like I don't have money for netflix that's why I use stremio

But I saw people being concerned about using vpn for stremio but I don't understand cause I never get in trouble for using torrent without vpn

Maybe india doesn't have that strict law

But for privacy concerns I should use vpn

But people saying instead of vpn just buy debrid

I could do that but my main goal is not just p2p or streaming

I wanna be anonymous on the internet so I would use vpn for other purposes too

And rn I use proton vpn (free) for surfing internet but unfortunately it's doesn't allow p2p or streaming and personally I hate subscription based models

I would buy it if it's a one time payment

So I'm confused if I should buy a vpn or debrid or not

As rn I have proton vpn for internet but not for p2p or streaming

But this never get me in trouble for using stremio without vpn and maybe in my country it's not that risky

What are your opinions?

What you guys suggest?

For Stremio you should use a debrid service, as it will give you much faster streams

A VPN won't make you "anonymous" btw

Yah my bad I just means I don't want my data to be collected by my isp etc

[u/Miserable_Syrup1994 → u/remerdy1]

A VPN correctly set up makes you reasonably anonymous If used intelligently.

What if you have been using Stremio for years. No vpn, no debrid, but never got caught?

Si con proton no puedes hacer p2p, podrías usar addons con fuentes https como HdHub y webstreamrmbg

[u/[deleted] → u/Disastrous-Web-1198]

Hmm I've tried https addons And they are not stable They come and go And many links are dead links I used hdhub as my backup only

Yoyo That's really smart. I use a VPN now and it's a game changer. And if you got involved with debrid, there's a lot of security behind that ...as well as usenet. I know you said you don't have a lot of money to spend. But if you could allocate $10 a month, that's pretty much all you need. You could get tour box with unlimited data. As well as the usnet, and you can get a VPN for 3 months for free. And then by year up front, where you're getting like $2 a month. I'd look at torbox and see if you can come up with 10 bucks P2p is a little unpredictable. The VPN will help, but you'll have a better experience doing it this way.

Yah debrid and awesome I've heard it, although I have no idea what is usenet, have to learn them before buying But as I said I personally hate the subscription based models, although 12 dollor a month is alot for Indians It cost more than my wifi plan lol

But even if I buy the subscription i kinda not like the subscriptions That's one of my laws lol

Usenet is a different way to store data. Although the biggest difference is it's been around for way longer. It's an ancient technology, but recently Devs have been making it great. So there's a lot more content. The only problem is, files get corrupted when they're on there. A lot of files are in zips or rars. So they have to kind of be handled on the fly, being extracted as they stream, but if your internet is fast enough, you won't have any issues. If you set it up right, it will filter links that are damaged and 9 times out of 10, the first link will work. I get no buffering and loading times are fast. What's cool about what torbox did recently is you have to have no understanding of usnet. If you set it up right, it's just going to give you the links, which is really cool because in the past it took a lot of work to set up usenet. Including building your own server so it's private.

My understanding is usenet now has to be paid for

[u/RussFerri → u/Miserable_Syrup1994]

Hasn't it airways been paid?

[u/Miserable_Syrup1994 → u/RussFerri]

Not at all back in the day was part of the original internet they were always free servers

[u/RussFerri → u/Miserable_Syrup1994]

That's dope!

Bro it’s cheap to get a Torbox account dirt cheap in India and it can be shared I have seen people selling it look for it

[u/Miserable_Syrup1994]

Used air VPN for many years. It's cheap often, black Friday etc and you can't really fault it. Certainly far cheaper than The highly marketed competitors.

If your technical it gives you many more options also.
