What is your intent?
If you want to help preserve, you can help Anna’s Archive by seeding torrents: https://annas-archive.gl/torrents
I knew it there is a trick you have to pay for to get a membership. It’s not free.
Sorry, what are you trying to do? Anna’s achive is not selling anything. You can donate to them, and in return they will give you fast downloads from their mirrors. But you are not using their mirrors, you’re using torrents, right?
Like you just literally go to https://annas-archive.gl/dyn/generate_torrents?max_tb=1&format=url
And it will give you a list of torrent files you can download to seed their content as a backup for them, to preserve the knowledge. At no point do you need a membership (not even if you want to download individual files from their servers, you just get slower download speeds which will still have you downloading books in a minute or two).
To hoard any and all info. Can you download from annas? Tho I get to download them first then seed.? If you say yes…I think I will have my first knowledge orgasm. Is there an knowledge that is off limits? I get child porn and stupid groups promoting racist bullshit. But would like to get into like terrorism (studying of course) and how it works and serial killers. I love manifesto’s. I want to access the hidden gems of the net. and share. I want to be the first treasure finder.
You can help hoard the info so the knowledge is not lost. The torrents are not designed to be browsed (you do that on their website) but instead are designed to be a copy to stop it being lost.
To help, follow the link I gave. In the “Help seed” section say how much space you have. It will allocate you appropriately torrents to download and seed.
So you telling me while using a VPN that there is a site I can download from and seed. Without all that DMCA notices and stuff?
I am not sure what you mean by DMCA notices but there are hundreds of sites that you can torrent from if you use a VPN yes. My assumption was that you’re already familiar with torrenting.
For the record, Anna’s Archive is not distributing books with the copyright owners consent, they are a shadow library.
I am but always on the lookout for new sites.
Yes, once upon a time I got that notice from my ISP. I have a virtual machine running now, which is connected to a VPN and I torrent everything nowadays. TV, Movies, music, software whatever. Haven’t gotten any conflict from my ISP in well over a decade. For info, I use Mullvad. Economical and reliable. Had the occasional hiccup but their main site shows how to resolve problem immediately.
So, yeah you can torrent to your heart’s content once you’re on a VPN. I recommend Mullvad simply because they are not in the U.S.A. and they don’t keep logs, as per their stated policy. That’s all you can go on. But I have no affiliation with them I’m simply a satisfied customer.
Enjoy.
USENET. Thank me later.
Yes. Except for interesting posts, everything else is available at your local library. You can only hoard for about three weeks at a time though.
Internet archive? https://archive.org/ They have lots of different “things” collected and are always looking for help/volunteers.
- It’s “to my heart’s content”
- It would be 'til otherwise
You sure about that?

to your heart’s content
idiom
If you do something to your heart’s content, you do something enjoyable for as long as you want to do it:
You’ve got a whole week to yourself and you can read to your heart’s content.
To seed?? Otherwise, you need a private site.
Yes…and more. It’s like im a pitbull and always have my computer going through my mind to download. I am addicted. In reality I would like enough information that I know it would last till I am a hundred years old. I am 32 at the moment. It’s kind of been an obsession. Still trying to get to to my first petabyte but I think in the next 15 years if I could keep on it I could get to exabytes.
Dang! What knowledge do you hoard? I’d like to archive sites of actual science or discoveries before they’re disappeared, and other long-term humanity helpful stuff.
Raw storage capacity I’m over 200TB easily. Redundancy is closer to 150TB. Used is actually closer to 60TB. That’s a mix of all my DVDs, BDs, UHD BDs, TV series, personal photos, videos, documents, stuff for family (duplicates).
I condense all my movie and tv show’s . I’m still rocking the 1 tb external on a 250 gb computer.
