# Adblocking

How important is using an adblocker?

Piracy sites usually contain ads, some of which can be harmful, often leading to unwanted pages or fake download buttons. Real download buttons are usually small, and match the sites design, while fake ones are often big and eye-catching. It can be hard to tell them apart, so its important to always have an adblocker.

For browsers we recommend uBO, and you can also use a Redirect Skipper to skip annoying countdowns.

For mobile AdGuard Premium / iOS / Guide or Rethink DNS, and you can block YouTube, Reddit, and Twitter ads with ReVanced Manager / Easy Setup.


# Browsers

Which web browser should I use?

We recommend Firefox, but you can also try Privacy-Focused Browsers, or Brave if you prefer Chromium-based.

For mobile we recommend Cromite, Firefox or Mull for privacy.

# Antivirus

How can I safely scan files, and determine if detections are false positives?

Before installing any file, its recommended to scan the setup / install with VirusTotal. If you're having trouble determining if something is a false positive, refer to the Scan Guide, or send it to us in Feedback and we'll take a look for you.


# Privacy

I don't have anything to hide, why should I care about privacy?

Privacy is about controlling your personal information, not just keeping things secret. Non-sensitive data is used by companies to track your behavior, target ads, and influence your choices.

For email privacy, we recommend Proton and for search SearX. It's also good to check sites like HaveIBeenPwned to make sure your info hasn't been part of any recent data breaches.


# Windows Piracy

How can I download / activate Windows for free?

Download an ISO from Massgrave's Genuine Installation Media page, and follow the Clean Install Windows Guide to install it. After install, activate it with Microsoft Activation Scripts.


# Torrenting

Do I need a VPN to torrent?

Downloading files through torrenting can cause issues with your ISP, so using a VPN is a must in most countries. VPNs have a kill switch feature that stops data from leaking, but you should also bind your VPN to your torrent client. You can also use Remote Torrenting Services to avoid the need for VPN altogether.
