The government employees are at home; these are privately funded contractors, just like the ballroom reno itself.

And was immediately drug from his office and publicly executed…

That’s honestly a little relieving to know; but I’m still not going to hold my breath and expect a good result.

Has the SC said ‘no’ to anything this administrations asked for?

I’ve never understood the desire to stand while peeing. Sure; when you’ve got too - like outside - or if a toilet is filthy and you don’t want to touch it; but I’ve always been happy to take the opportunity to sit my lazy ass down for a minute. Plus I never have to worry about aim or cleaning up if I miss.

Except it’s on my balls

Kinda makes me curious about the logistics. You can’t exactly mark it as ‘read’.

Do they just keep it on until he shows up? What if there’s more than one crime happening? How long will they wait for some sort of response?

it wouldn’t be owned by pornhub. It would be owned by MindGeek, their parent company.

Which, In Americas current legal/political landscape, is more than enough to link them and insist they have an obligation to prevent users accessing MindGeeks own legally restricted content.

They need a significant separation to cover their own asses. Common corporate ownership doesn’t provide that separation.

I presume you mean, so users in individual States or other regions that restrict it can access pornhub

No.

A VPN provides a layer of plausible deniability where PornHub can say “we don’t know those connections come from [restricted region] so we didn’t know we had to bock them/verify IDs”. All they see is connections comming from the VPN exit server location, which is very likely in a more forgiving/less restrictive region.

If PornHub owns the VPN as well, they now know the true location of the user as well as what they’re accessing and will be scrutinized much further about those connections.

That will solve part of the problem, preventing downloads before an item has even released; but there’s still lots of potential to grab unwanted torrents and leave the arrs asking for intervention when they can’t import it.

Ideally the indexers would be filtering out this junk before users can even grab them, but failing that I think we’ve got a decent solution. Check out the edited OP

No, I don’t. Haven’t been on Reddit for 2.5 years though, so why would I.

Stop torturing yourself OP. Move on.

Check out the edited OP.

I’m taking a look at this. It looks like it’s the malware blocker portion that I’m interested in, but if I enable it and ‘delete known malware’, it just complains every minute that there are no blocklists enabled. (though the documents say it’s supposed to fetch one from a pages.dev url that has almost no content)

Do you have a specific malware blocklist configured? Enabling the specific service blocklists demands a url for one.

I can host/build a list over time for these to use if that’s what I’ve gotta do; just wondering if there’s a public collaboration on one already on the go.

/edit: found it

No.

Here’s the LegalEagle explaining why.

TLDW; punishment can include the death penalty. It’s also a system designed to punish disobedience immediately and only much much later provide an opportunity to prove the orders you disobeyed were unlawful and thus the punishment you already suffered was wrong. That’s a very very high bar to pass as well.

That’s what I’d already done as per the OP, but it leaves Sonarr/Radarr wanting manual intervention for the ‘complete’ download that doesn’t have any files to import.

I just did some digging and found I do have some good quality content from them, but they were all grabbed via NZBGeek.

Every torrent I’ve gotten with that label has been garbage/malware.

This comment prompted me to look a little deeper at this. I looked at the history for each show where I’ve had failed downloads from those groups.

For SuccessfulCrab; any time a release has come from a torrent tracker (I only have free public torrent trackers) it’s been garbage. I have however had a number of perfectly fine downloads with that group label, whenever retrieved from NZBgeek. I’ve narrowed that filter to block the string ‘SuccessfulCrab’ on all torrent trackers, but allow NBZs. Perhaps there’s an impersonator trying to smear them or something, idk.

ELiTE on the other hand, I’ve only got history of grabbing their torrents and every one of them was trash. That’s going to stay blocked everywhere.

The block potentially dangerous setting is interesting, but what exactly is it looking for? The torrent client is already set to not download file types I don’t want, so will it recognize and remove torrents that are empty? (everything’s marked ‘do not download’) I’m having a hard time finding documentation for that.

Awesome. Thanks you two, I appreciate the help. :)
