Being completely new to this, my only experience was downloading garbage from limewire way back when. I’ve read through the megathread and get the gist of what a vpn does and what debriding services do. My thing is, I’ve found usually if it’s too good to be true, it probably isn’t. So if I use the recommended browser and dns settings, have a good vpn, set up kill switches, only download/torrent/stream through a binded vpn connection on trusted sites, is that really all it takes to mostly stay (legally) safe? Is it really that simple? As I understand you don’t really need a vpn if using debrid service, but I’m sure there will be goodies to be had through the vpn regardless.
