Usenet Providers security (sh.itjust.works)

Is it save to use identifying information (credit card, PayPal) for paying a Usenet provider? I'm especially interested in thecubenet.com and easynews. Have there been any incidents where someone got into trouble for downloading copyright protected content from a provider?

Also should I use a VPN for downloading even when SSL is enabled?

Thanks in advance :)

they all "miss" some content. if it has been taken down from usenet you may just have to look for a repost, seems like everything is reposted 8 different times. if its missing cause its to old then maybe you need the blocknews block for full retention like you said.
