Dissenting opinion - You don’t need to change your payment method, but you might want to rent a box outside your country.

The seedbox provider is providing you sufficient cover. They’re the ones who would have to make the link between the IP you’re using and you. That’s unlikely to happen because they’ve protected themselves.

A copyright owner (or their agent) that is interested in identifying you from your seeding would send a letter to the data center owner (OVH, Hetzner, etc) saying “Hey, one of your IPs is infringing our copyright! Tell them to stop.”

The data center owner might forward that letter on to the seedbox provider who is renting space in their data center. Either way, the letter will be ignored and everyone goes on with their day.

If the copyright owner is sufficiently motivated they can press the issue with some lawyers. Then the data center will provide a name, to make it all someone else’s problem. They don’t have your name though, just the seedbox provider’s, and the seedbox provider is smartly incorporated in another country, which makes litigation complicated (to say the least).

Now, maybe the copyright owner is a cabal of publishers looking to make a point and have buckets of money to spend. (You did say you wanted to mirror Anna’s Archive.) In that case they’ll work with local law enforcement in the jurisdiction that the seedbox provider is incorporated to go after them there.

That court case will take some years to resolve, but then your involvement will come down to whether the seedbox provider kept logs associating payers and IPs. They might or might not. If they didn’t, you’re just one person in a big pool of customers.

If they do have logs associating you specifically to that IP at the time you were infringing the copyright… well, who’s to say your credit card wasn’t stolen?

But it’s the big releases that have the most bugs and UX breakage

No, just this example code from their site:

browser = p.chromium.launch(headless=True)

My mistake was not knowing where newspaper4k fits in the stack. They’re wrapping it with Playwright, which it seems you could do here.

Looks like newspaper4k uses headless Chrome. You could try loading the Bypass Paywalls Clean extension and browsing the pages directly.

I regularly use it (in Firefox) without even thinking about it. Only notice when I send someone an article they can’t access.

Radarr and Sonarr both have features to sym/hardlink files to new places after the download client tells them it’s finished.

Filebot also gets mentioned a lot for this task, though I haven’t used it.

Frutiger Aero, I think.

Thanks for asking. Not sure how I toggled that on…

You can put the game into its own time namespace.
