With that logic they should sue the creators of the AV1 codec as well. Lots of pirated movies will be encoded with it....

Use a firewall to block all outgoing packages through all interfaces but lo and tun (or wg for Wireguard). Like this for iptables:

-A FORWARD -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-port-unreachable
-A OUTPUT -m conntrack --ctstate RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A OUTPUT -o lo -j ACCEPT
-A OUTPUT -d 1.2.3.4/32 -p udp -j ACCEPT #replace with public IP of your VPN you try to connect
-A OUTPUT -p icmp -j ACCEPT
-A OUTPUT -o tun+ -j ACCEPT #replace with wg+ for Wireguard
-A OUTPUT -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-port-unreachable

If you are paranoid you could mess with INPUT table as well but if OUTPUT is configured properly nobody well ever know your real IP address.

Not sure how well this works with Docker and such, I use LXC containers.

The funny thing is that I am actually seeding Linux ISOs (yes, real ones). The reason I am using a VPN to seed those is because the ISP is complaining about random peers hitting (non-existing obviously) addresses in private IPv4 ranges (like 172.16.1.1) and instead if simply dropping those packages at the switch ... oh well. I guess some people have multiple peers connected to each other via private networks but external peers don't know about these connections and simply try to reach them on their private addresses over public internet.

Anyway yeah I could mess with routing table on my server and null-route those ranges but I have an active VPN contract already so why not using it?

Cyberpunk2077 at the moment. Got more than 250 hours on it. Before that I played Dishonored a lot and that before the very first Deus Ex. The story was just incredible and IMHO still is one of the best in video game history.

I deleted my reddit account (and all my content beforehand) so yeah...still looking around for matching communities though.
