    Because my ISP gets mad about torrents, I don’t usually rewatch things, I don’t have to wait for the download to finish, I can do it on my tablet, and I don’t want to deal with cleaning up old video files every time I need to make room for the next 100+GB game install.

      Not trying to convince you but you should use a VPN either way when pirating and you don’t have to wait if you enable sequential downloading. You just have to wait a few minutes depending on your connection. Your download speed also has to be at minimum as fast as the movie is playing

        if i had money to pay for a VPN i’d just use something like real debrid. and if my ISP is middlemanning my https certs then a VPN probably isn’t going to help much.
