Its mostly just anime, movies, TV and game torrents. I use VPN to pass geo-blocking as well.

 

I may go for short term work in either South Korea or Saudi for a few months. Does anybody have any idea, how safe it is to use a VPN as a foreigner in these countries? Worse case scenario, can I use a VPN in a Azure VM and scp torrent downloaded files or something?

Will these work with torrent downloads and such? For regular browsing it will work I guess, but won't downloads be really really throttled. Please forgive me if I'm asking dumb things.

Fuck me..... But yeah that was what I was kinda expecting.

What if I use a VPN inside a cloud VM and scp the files? Would that raise any flags?

 

I have a question regarding VPN usage in South Korea and Saudi Arabia. I may go for short term work in either South Korea or Saudi for a few months. Does anybody have any idea, how safe it is to use a VPN as a foreigner in these countries? Worse case scenario, can I use a VPN in a Azure VM and scp torrent downloaded files or something?

Depends on the company, project, manager and teammates. That being said, fuck WFO. Hybrid should be the bare minimum in 2024.

I tried this. Didn't really work for me.

That's a good suggestion as well.

Makes sense. Gonna try this the next time..

Edit : Just sneezed. There's a problem. Just as I'm about to sneeze I breath in. I'll need to use a lot of force in a short time to exhale any air. Am I doing it wrong?

 

I sneeze really loudly and powerful and often I can't control it. What makes it worse is, its often sprays a lot of saliva as well. I'm safe most of the time if I can get to my handkerchief or tissue in time. But there are times I have no other option but to let it out. Has anyone found a way to tame it and make it milder or easier to control.

I'm genuinely surprised why the UK haven't already

I don't , I do it manually, but that being said if you watch using Stremio, Jellyfin, Plex then I guess radarr, sonarr all those things can do that for you. I never used any of those so I could be wrong. I just download the torrents directly and manually track them.

Never track your shows, movies and games on just one service. Always have backups. For example I use TVTime, Simkl and IMDB for TV and movies, and MAL,AniTrend,Simkl for anime, HLTB and Stash for games.
