I'd be going through Singapore to get to Japan, so I doubt that'd be better... Hmm maybe, after looking at the map, it might actually work out better, depends on how saturated the direct cable is I guess.

Truthfully, I usually double-check with Strava heat maps to see where people are actually riding...
Or violence, which is justified self-defense when tyrants are trying to destroy everyone’s property rights.
Valid option. Burn it all down and start again is always possible, and probably more efficient than fixing things at this point.
I'm not American either, but law precedents are contagious, once enough judges think it's reasonable, others start to as well, even across borders. A lot of the world runs on Scottish common law at base. If you really want to get to root causes, I'd go with greed, the tendency of the rich to seek rent, and Late Stage Capitalism.
The original idiocy here is the DMCA, this and the other idiocies practised in its name are consequences. Over time the idiocies build up as case law precedents until new and ever more egregious cases are made, some of which stick (as in throw shit at the wall and see what sticks) and the cycle continues. Eventually the only way to root it out becomes new legislation.
So, no-one's mentioned tailscale. If it's just for you, or some select friends, it's probably the least friction to get secure access to your home network. Still, gotta check your threat matrix, do you really need it, is it really worth it for that occasional, maybe hypothetical usage ? Least access is best security...
I fucking hate discord
It's Cancer, have an upvote.
Good to know, for such a simple thing, it's amazing that notes hasn't found a simple winner.
How's that going, compared to Joplin or Standard Notes ?
If it can be read (i.e. used) it can be copied. Self-destruct is a possibility, thermite FTW ;). There are encryption technologies that will resist even this level of resources however, I'm guessing 1024-bit encryption is good until Q-day, probably more with a quantum ready algorithm, although none of those have been tested yet.
That's when they bring out the rubber hose...
Certainly wouldn't hurt, tunnel out via vpn to swaziland or whatever. I'm still going to be searching locally, but if all they know is I'm looking for bikes and hopefully don't link it to my shadow profile, I can probably live with that. Still, don't they require ID and phone number and shit these days ? IDK, I really don't follow them.
So, by way of answering my own question, I found this map, which lets you work it out for yourself. Interesting stuff.
Which brings me to the question of how to benchmark now that I can make good guesses. Speedtest to US and Europe?
ETA: For those that follow, what I did was spin up multiple gluetun instances, Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, hook them to firefox with FoxyProxy (different ports, duh) and compare speeds on https://librespeed.org/. Bottom line was the bottleneck was my ISP (surprise!!)
Still, I suspect there are ways to leverage crap internet to useful torrenting.
