I found I2P much better than Tor network, and now it supports BitTorrent protocol too https://geti2p.net/en/docs/applications/bittorrent .

Why haven't the pirates migrated to I2P? Why are we still using clearnet and making people backout of seeding cause of DMCA?

Likely because Usenet still works and so does xdcc via irc.

Can usenet be used without paying?

I had someone explain to me how it really isn't a privacy concern to use usenet but financially it does feel like a bit of a bamboozle but you have to realize that usenet often will max out your download speed which is pretty nice and it has some magic that prevents people from knowing what you're trying to access so it's likely worth the like $10/mo

If you look around you can get it for $3.50 a month (I have an account with News Demon that's unlimited for that price, which I don't remember exactly but I think I got it during a black friday sale)

Just remember that this is no longer Reddit and you're likely welcomed to post links to things for other Lemmy users to find.
