BitTorrent-App iTorrent: Apple entzieht Entwickler offenbar Sideloading-Lizenz

Durch alternative App-Läden können BitTorrent-Clients in der EU bequem aufs iPhone. Nun hindert Apples Developer-Portal eine prominente App daran – seit Wochen.

Good to read about unmasking #BitTorrent users from non-judge-issued subpoenas. Unfortunately, it seems like an ISP isn't forbidden to volunteer your information. This just clarifies that they can toss these requests, but they can also still fulfill these requests. Now I need to review what my state laws say on the matter... #hawaii

Ok, so I'm trying to make a torrent for #Tenacity and seed it. I figure I could create the torrent on one computer, transfer it to my file server via #BitTorrent (where it'll seed there), and then distribute the torrent and magnet link.

The transfer works fine because my file server and computer are on the same networks. However, when I test with my phone or another computer on a different network, it doesn't work. My file server is behind a firewall, but ports 6881-6889 are both open on both my router and firewall on the server.

What am I doing wrong? Is this too complicated?

What if we gave an official download over #BitTorrent? The main motivation is to provide a way to help reduce server load on @Codeberg because of recent AI crawlers. It's something we can do at the moment, but we hope every little but helps nonetheless. It also gives another outlet for people to download Tenacity if Codeberg is down or, for some reason, it's blocked in your country.

Just a thought, but if you want to see that happen, let us know below!

USA: Zugangsprovider müssen Filesharer nicht auf Zuruf verraten

Zugangsprovider müssen nach US-Copyright-Recht nicht einfach so verraten, wer ihre Kunden sind. Das sagt ein wichtiges US-Bundesberufungsgericht.

So much #debian to seed :D

I have been planning this since last fall, but the coming #YouTube lockdown has finally gotten me to request an account on a #PeerTube instance! To start I will reupload content from my old channels, but I hope to eventually return to livestreaming (also on PeerTube and/or with #Owncast, since I won't be using #Twitch any more either). I am also thinking about getting a #seedbox and having magnet links to torrents of all my stuff, but since I know that PeerTube uses #webtorrent, I'm wondering if I can just get a magnet link for my video from my PeerTube instance and pass it to the seedbox.
