Thank you, now we're devolving into the territory of misrepresentation and an apples to oranges comparison. Let's start with the bad comparison. A VPN is a very different beast than a Seedbox, as VPNs relay connections and don't host content. Now of course where they are based does indeed matter but even in the case of Mullvad their main base of operations isn't even based in France, it's in Sweden, so this whole comparson is rubbish and if you'd had bothered to check you would have seen that. Moreover a seedbox or debrid service unlike a VPN is a hosting service, they download and cache torrents. So if they are based in a country currently waging war against hosting of copyrighted content, and services are receiving takedown requests they are very likely to be also hit. Which is why AllDebrid and Debrid-Link are being recommended against by OP and others (me included).
Prove me wrong, prove that RealDebrid will last through this, not technically, I mean that it will remain useful for Pirated streaming and that they won't start deleting cached data. If they don't do it and these changes get walked back I will happily admit to being wrong. Otherwise you're no different to any of the other dipshits from r/RealDebrid trying to encourage people to continue paying for a service about to become very useless in the weeks or months to come (or getting angry that people are requesting refunds or chargebacks).
Agreed, let's wait and see. In the meantime I and OP are still not encouraging others to buy into a service like this which will likely just go out. Instead encouraging people to use different services that aren't based and hosted in the country going to town on the current one over piracy. And if you don't like it either suck it up or seethe and whine.
I don't answer you, or other disreputable people online who claim they are reputable and make bad-faith arguments. Your desire to try and challenge me for bets or dares does tell me all that I need to know, I will not respond to this conversation any more as it has long outlived any level of usefulness or constructiveness. Goodbye.
