Honestly, im scared to get into piracy because im afraid of getting in trouble or failing, basically im worried for no reason. I also have some random questions about piracy.

  1. should downloaded things be put on a internal or external hard drive. Because my external hard drive can be weird at times and i know some files required them to be installed internally.

  2. is there a way to help out the piracy community without breaking any rules or breaking the bank?

  3. are direct downloads safer or torrent, or something else?

that is all i have at the moment but feel free to add on to this if you wish too.

Tor is going to be way too slow in most cases to download anything sizeable. Most of Tor's benefits are when browsing onion sites and used in conjunction with other tools.
