Just curious, mostly since I've done it in the past.
Is movie reuploading still worth it in 2020?

I'm living in a third-world country that does not really care about copyright strike.

Any examples of this? I found a few cases but these people were uploading, charging subscription fees, etc

Do not live in any illusion, you can still be caught and punished for this.

You can have a streaming movie site, embed them only - no need to re-upload shit and get sued.
Off-shore hosting
Don't share your personal info
Always use a proxy/vpn
Not so dangerous anymore, though, there's always a risk.

Many streaming sites in Russia are backed and supported by Casino websites, which are majority held by big mafias. People who manage movie sites basically have nothing to lose and/or have no other way for income.

The risk will always be there, but could be mitigated. If you could find a way to conceal your identity, you should be good. Stealth PayPal and bitcoin is what most guys use. I'd love to do this someday, as well. I just love the adventure. he he!

I mean... there's a lot of aspects to the opsec you would have to keep this operation "not so dangerous" as you say. Such as tumbling BTC before buying your off-shore hosting etc.
And if your opsec is that much for that small amount of profits, you might as well do something more blackhat in my opinion

A guy from Sweden got caught for running a site like this a couple years back, got hit with a huge lawsuit. Swefilmer it was called, I guess you could google it and translate the articles about him. He used great OpSec from what I've heard, yet got caught.

I looked him and translated a few articles, but I couldn't find anything about his opsec - I want to know more about that.
But yes, it's dangerous worldwide - there's pretty much no where you can go to escape from copyright law and India/Russia/China are being policed harder now and the cops are working closer with the US copyright cartel, so it's very risky no matter where you go.
It's also a very saturated market.

Thanks for the replies guys. Let me clear something first though, what I meant by reuploading here is not really "owning a movie site" but rather become an uploader to movie sites. To tell the truth, Corona hits my business pretty hard just like million other and currently I'm in a bit of pinch financial-wise, so I'm kinda cornered to try any and every ways to make money online just to stay afloat.

That's right! carve out something unique for yourself...create your own world.
