Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

Yandex is currently the best search engine for pirate stuff. You might need to change the language setting to only show english results, tho, as it gives preference to russian stuff.

If you're on Windows, you can block any address "forever" by running Notepad as an admin and opening the file C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

• Any line starting with 0.0.0.0 will automatically "fail" to find the page. For instance, 0.0.0.0 www.whatever.com will completely block that domain. It won't block www.whatever.co.uk or whatever.com, so you'll have to add one line for each top level domain. It's great for blocking the worst ad networks (the ones that leave 6 clickjacks per page)

You can use IRC to pirate ebooks that you won't be able to find on torrent sites.

IPv6 torrenting for the most part goes unchecked by the companies who send threat letters to your ISP. I have a US seedbox which doesn’t have IPv4 and it’s been working great with a lot of public torrents

Yeah, setting up the Servarrs (Lidarr/Radarr/Sonarr + Prowlarr) along with your bt client, then trawling opensignups to get onto private torrent sites.

Usenet is worth every penny
