So my non scientific understanding is this affects the business operations of VPN providers mostly and server deployment less. I assume PsiPhon, Windscribe and others move their billing to a less draconian jurisdiction.

Got to say, damn, I just subscribed to Windscribe recently to circumvent authoritarian Australian government surveillance ...

That's so depressing.

I'm not saying it makes sense. I'm just saying this is how they expect it to work.

1. Most people do not give a shit at all and live in ignorance. Just us fringe tech enthusiasts in the know. So global governments aren't fearing any pushback or outrage from the public.

2. Billionaires, corporations, governments want to do this globally. It's clearly an organised push.

Nothing? Is it too late?

Yes. In my opinion. Use the internet less.

But the company is physically in Sweden and you pay the Swedish company in Sweden.

It doesn't seem different than North Korea demanding Canadian internet providers must follow North Korean laws.

yes if you provide services to Canada, under this law they would have to keep records.

write to your representative, That's about it. It has one more reeading in parliament before it goes to the senate.

What can we do to prevent it becoming law?

Edit: '9 hours later'

Nothing? Is it too late?

There's I2P I think it's called.

I've been using IVPN for almost a week now with no complaints.

Does the bill affect foreign VPN's like Mulvad that is Swedish?

Which reminds me, I need to find another VPN now that Mulvad's owner is funding right wing politics.

is there no megathread on lemmy?

shouldnt the whole point be to leave reddit behind..? I just read so much on that megathread, with lots of questions, but Im shadow-banned there (tldr mod powertrip in my opinion, happy to retell the crazy statements) ..I cant search for posts/getting shitty sample results (i.e. even no chronologic order searching by new) for example..

so my questions in my head are kinda unanswered and here I cant seem to find the relevant communities/posts :/ arent there any plans to establish an alternatvive to RPiracy here on open souce lemmy?

the Citrus rom is corrupted.

I use duckduckgo and disactivated the AI search. Also, the Citrus archive is corrupted.

Searching really has quickly become a lost art in this age of AI, hasn't it?

okay let's say I don't have reddit and don't want to anymore

Used Google to translate the text, and did a DDG search after removing some things. This search result had some apparent sources among them.

Can't tell you that. I can only point you to the r/piracy megathread.

You'll find your way from there.

This sounds good. I'll give it a deeper dive

What you're describing sounds a lot like stremio which I have been using for a couple years. It's not super technical to setup, but I recommend adding a debrid subscriptions (<20$ / year). And there's an Android tv app !

I don't know any specifically but you might be able to find some. The site I linked has a decent guide. I'm afraid it doesn't get that much simpler.

Could you recommend a video for complete idiots?

You indeed want something like Radarr and related tools. The bad news is it is technical to set up. The good news is there are guides and videos you can find that help explain the process e.g. https://wiki.servarr.com/en/radarr
