YouTube Vanced was shut down because they tried to monetise it by releasing their own crypto NFTs, sparking Google to shut it down. I think for now Revanced is safe.

Honest question here. Could it be possibly that as they improved their DRM with more triggers and methods that it has started to impact performance since 2016?

As Empress was cracking Denuvo, I wouldnt be surprised if they started to quickly add extra defencive measures compromising what could have been optimised in the past.

NFTs could have a useful case of keeping online records of ownership. Being cars, homes and even cattle. Which coulld also make it easier and cheaper to sell or buy these things.

Ignoring privacy concerns of course.

I've never experienced or heard of any airport checking the private contents of people's devices. Wouldn't that be a massive breach of privacy?

Also how would they know it's pirated or not. Wouldn't they have to check for licenses... Wouldn't that be incredibly time consuming for staff to be checking?

Im in serious doubt this would be a thing.

TL is pretty lenient. You're more likely to hit 10 days seeding than actually hitting a 1 ratio. In fact, unless you're seeding 24/7 you won't get a lot uploads. But that's normal. Your time spent seeding earns you points which you can use to give yourself more Downloads in GB or unlocking fun perks.

You can seed intermittently as well and even go days or weeks without having to seed. As long as you don't rack up a lot of hit and runs in one go and maintaining a good ratio you'll be fine. But definitely try to hit those seeding requirements.

They also give you a buffer so you'll start off with a healthy ratio. And they also offer a massive amount of Freeleech torrents which don't cut into your download ratio. So you can download those 'for free' and then seed those to earn uploads/points.

They have stats, how much you upload, download, how long etc. There are even achievements which earn you points too.

I would give them a go for sure. It's not as strict as you think and they have a wiki with a FAQ which should cover any questions you have.
