Hello! To start my attempt at not lurking I am posting a link to the collection of links I have from Reddit regarding various Piracy sites. Please keep in mind this is my personal collection. You should ABSOLUTELY vet the links yourself. I am just a guy on the internet, I am not a trusted source. This is not a complete list. This is just the sites I refer to for their specific category. I’ve omitted a fair bit too since the megathreads / link collections have them already too.
If you have other good sources, be sure to share!

Torrents 🤢🤢🤢… I’m surprised people still use them without going through I2P.
I’ve heard bflix has the movie+tv show goodies.
Thank you for resources?
Noob question: How would I go about vetting the links/downloads?
Also, how do I safely download from these sites? I’ve been using a VPN (mullvad) for a couple years now, but is that enough?
I’m pretty tech savvy but I have never needed to download, but I just don’t want to install origin, Uplay, EA, or any other launcher to play a single player game and tbh I don’t want to support those companies at all
Also, how do I safely download from these sites?
I thought there was a mirror on lemmy for r/piracy’s spectacular megathread but I don’t see it. Rough guides from a semi-noob:
Direct download:
-
TOR with Ublock Origin add-on
-
After downloading your file, upload it to virustotal.com and scan it. If it passes you’re probably pretty safe.
Torrent:
-
Find and copy your file magnet in TOR.
-
Turn on VPN.
-
Open qbittorrent with your connection bound to your VPN’s network.
-
Paste your magnet link when it prompts you and download.
-
Once it’s done downloading, upload it to virustotal to scan it.
