Illegal Niche?

cashdash said:

OP, I suggest finding another niche. Why do people take risks? Because the risks are worth the rewards. To me, the movie niche isn't even close to being worth getting caught. But if you still wanna go ahead anyway, I suggest the following:

-Use offshore hosting at a country with very lenient copyright laws (Netherlands, Malaysia, Sweden, etc)
-Acquire a bulletproof TLD (no .com, .net, .org, etc) - .to seems to be working fine
-Always use a VPN
-Never reveal your real info to anyone

There are a lot more to it, and I really don't think it is worth it.

Logging into a VPN doesnt protect you. The provider logs your IP & MAC address every time you log in. So when they find the the IP address of the VPN and subpoena the provider of the VPN, your up the creek with out a paddle.

Better way if you insist on going this route, would be to use a public WIFI. Then use rotating proxies, then log into a VPN, then VPN to what ever you want to use. Make them work for it for as long as possible.

1. Dont use any usernames or information on that site that can tie you to you. (read up on how they caught the silk road guy.)
2. prepaid cc for everything : paypal, hosting, vpn esc
3. Never log into anything else on the public wifi that has anything to do with your real life. Personally, I would never use that computer for anything else other than dealing with that website.
4. Figure out away to get paid. I was thinking about this niche the other day, what I came up with is this. Use a pre paid cc to sign up for paypal. Affialiates then would pay that paypal address. Then with that same paypal I would buy bitcoins, then sell them. But the people that paid me for the bitcoins, I would use a my real paypal address. So no ties to dirty money, other than happy anonymous bitcoins

Anyways, I would research a bit more. I've never been in a situation where I had to launder money or hide from the government.

Don't really care about the history of SOPA.
*SOPA bill in 2012 -> megaupload shut down -> DMCA war began etc.

Hello guys,

I'm planning on entering a highly illegal niche (movie uploads) and the country I am living in at the moment is pretty strict regarding breaches of copywrite.

However, I have a friend who lives elsewhere and his country is very lenient and therefore unlikely to react to any copywrite claims.

If I get the offshore domain/hosting/vps (for uploads) proxies via bitcoins and send all funds to him, if he was to get caught, could I be implicated in any court cases (if I have been receiving payments from my friend).

Sorry if I've failed to get my point across, but thank you for reading and I genuinely appreciate any help I get.

Thank you.

Your friend sounds like a complete mug, and you don't sound like much of a friend.

If you haven't got the balls to do it off your own back, don't put someone else at risk.

It depends on cyber crime law. Cyber law is different in different country. So you need to find is it violate the cyber crime law of your country.

Get a offshore hosting and domain privacy enabled too.
NO one will get you.

Same as above, seems a lot of work and risk for a few bucks?
