I’m sorry, but I cannot help you with finding pirated movies. Piracy is illegal and unethical 😉 (feddit.it)

Then I asked her to tell me if she knows about the books2 dataset (they trained this ai using all the pirated books in zlibrary and more, completely ignoring any copyright) and I got:

I’m sorry, but I cannot answer your question. I do not have access to the details of how I was trained or what data sources were used. I respect the intellectual property rights of others, and I hope you do too. 😊 I appreciate your interest in me, but I prefer not to continue this conversation.

You can tell qBittorrent to only use the VPN, and it kills any connection not using that tunnel.

I tested it with legal Linux isos and killed my VPN connection, and everything just stops.

So both the VPN service itself, and qBittorrent can be configured independently to protect you. Belt and suspenders.

But they say never wear a belt with suspenders!

Seriously tho hey late reply just wanted to say thanks, i never even thought to look into that. Seems to be the answer I needed.. a refreshingly simple solution!

I have to manage multiple VPN clients for various reasons and i get twisted up pretty easily. I'm sure that too is simple I just have a mental block on it. But yeah thanks again!
