Who knows how many streaming services we have in this household? We are three generations all with different viewing tastes. My grandson and his fiancé stream exclusively. He also pirates what he wants every-so-often which makes me angry because Xfinity internet is in my name, so I get the nasty messages when he does this. In addition, on Xfinity's most expensive package which includes all the premiums, I pay for Netflix and Amazon Prime. We also have Hulu and more which I don't pay for or use. We may just be the most overloaded entertainment household in existence. LOL.

Here's the kicker, never I turn on the television before 6:00 pm and turn it off at 11:00 pm. during some of that time I am in the kitchen fixing my dinner. My addiction is to home improvement and gardening shows. Tonight, I watched the Magnolia Network exclusively. Amazon Prime gives me access to Britbox which broadcast Gardener's World hosted by Monty Don. Gardening is my main hobby. I watch every episode of this show as soon as it airs. I also sometimes enjoy the British show, Escape to the Country which is another reality Real Estate show only it is based in the U.K.

I used to tune in MSM, until I realized most of the news is a downer that I don't need. I'd mainly switch between CNN and FOX, watching as much of each as I could tolerate.     


You won't get those messages if your grandson downloads via VPN. It obscures your public WAN IP address. WAN stands for Wide Area Network. It's basically the public IP that any computer in your household broadcasts as it connects to services on the internet. Getbig records that IP address with every post. But if you use a VPN it only records the VPN address which could be anywhere in the world - Russia, Europe, Australia, Japan etc. Most VPN services allow you to choose a location. However ping times will drop in some areas. So you might as well choose auto connect and it will go with the best response time. That way your internet speed is not too slow while connected to the VPN service.

Your grandson should also remove any movies from the queue of his torrent software once he has downloaded / leeched what he wanted. Because otherwise he'll be sharing that with others on the internet and it will eat into your bandwidth. And you'll get unwanted attention from the movie industry's lawyers. You better talk to your grandson about this and get him a VPN service ASAP. It is not too expensive. But he better not be lazy with that. Best thing is to setup a dedicated computer with VPN service always on and with a VPN kill switch enabled. Then that computer is only used for torrents and nothing else. You can also run a dedicated virtual machine with VPN to download movie torrents. The key thing is to always have VPN on that machine and with a kill switch. If the VPN goes down the internet access of the computer / virtual machine is killed also. That way your REAL IP can never slip through the cracks into the clutches of those lawyers.

You can also claim you know nothing about these downloads. Best thing to do is to ignore those letters and start downloading with VPN. They really can't prove you downloaded anything even if your IP is recorded. You could claim someone remotely logged into your machine to download stuff. Or someone was able to get on your wifi and steal data, unbeknownst to you. If they come to investigate I would move all the incriminating computers off premises and setup the wifi with no password and claim ignorance lol!

I have a website (needs a good adblocker) that can stream almost any show or movie for free. No VPN required.

Send nudes via PM and I'll share it.

The ads (and shows) are constant and brutal (gay pride, poor oppressed BLM folks, etc).

There is nothing good to watch anymore.  Every show is either featuring blacks or gays.  Even this new Resident Evil show on Netflix is all blacks.  What the fuck.  Why does every show have to feature blacks now?  I refuse to watch this shit.

Thanks Tape...I cancelled a few shitters recently also but my wife insists I keep Netflix.

Tubi TV has a veritable ton of flicks but you have to sift through the bullshit to find the good tuff but they are there if you look hard enough.

There are also

https://pluto.tv

https://www.peacocktv.com/

and others that are free, legal, and easy to watch.

on one of my wife’s channels it has been shark week all week.Every show has some shark expert jumping in with about a hundred sharks and fucking with them.Last night I look and the shark expert is a black woman and I told my wife I am calling Bullshit here.Only way a black woman is swimming with sharks is if someone pushes her in. No racist of course

There is a show on MTV I like watching.  The challenge.  They also have about 20 people and maybe 5-6 are black but they are cool blacks.  Now they decided to take a run on putting this on mainstream TV on CBS.  The cast is about 80% black. WTF!

HA HA HA HA....you fucker!! LOL  ;D

Dude I`m so fucking old that when I was a kid if I wanted to change a channel I had to get up off the couch, walk waaaaaaay over to the TV set with the "rabbit ears" antennae on top of it, manually turn a knob, then fine tune it with another knob so the picture came in as clearly as it possibly could which wasn`t all that great, then walk waaaaaay back over to the couch again.

These day I get pissed if I have to wait for 15 fucking seconds for a bit of buffering to stop.  LOL  :D

yeah they certainly feel the need to black everything up.
