Is it legal to write a piracy tutorial? (lemmy.cafe)

Hi, I'm thinking about writing a media piracy tutorial for absolute beginners (think my mother - people who can use browsers and office but that's about it).

Does anybody know what's the legislation for that? I'm in the Czech Republic (EU), and the site is hosted on Codeberg pages (Germany). Nameservers for my domain are managed by CloudFlare (USA). So I'm curious about both EU and US laws.

If it's illegal, can I make it legal by not including any direct links, or stating some "educational purposes only" bullshit?

I feel like the internet is full of that stuff and even GitHub READMEs usually get away with "we don't condone piracy", but I also vaguely remember some lawsuit against redditors discussing piracy?

Thanks for advice.

so, whilst the other comments want through the risks of using cloudflare, i’d like to point out that hetzner DNS is free, easy to use, and a european solution. so, if you’re really not using any of the cloudflare features, its just as simple if not simpler to avoid that internet monopoly and use hetzner.
