OK, so, I have a couple of questions:

  • What’s the worst that can happen if I don’t use a VPN while pirating?
  • Are free tier VPNs (like Proton VPN) good enough?
  • I don’t want to pay much or anything for a VPN, is a way I can get a good free one, or set one myself somehow (I have experience with selfhosting) ?
  • If not, which cheap one do you recommend?

EDIT: I pirate mostly movies, and rarely some TV series.

    Monero is the private one. But also if you transfer your broker gotten bitcoins to another bitcoin wallet there is no evidence that that belongs to you. You can have sent them to someone else.

    IPs do not show in any ledgers

    Internet without VPN is like sending all your things on postcards instead of in envelopes in the mail. Yea https and more mitigate a lot but still.
