|
|
For Windows check out this [section](#pirate-windows)
|
|
For Office check these [guides](https://fmhy.pages.dev/storage/#office-suites)
|
|
|
|
> Where do I find *insert game title / movie title*?
|
|
For movies check out [this](https://whereyouwatch.com) and for new movies it's a good idea to keep an eye on [r/movieleaks](https://reddit.com/r/movieleaks).
|
|
For sites to stream from check out this [section](#streaming).
|
|
!!!info Pirated releases generally happen after a movie is digitally released or released via Blu-Ray / DVD, which can take 3 months+ after initially playing in theaters.
|
|
|
|
For games use [Rezi](https://rezi.one) or any site listed [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH/wiki/games/#wiki_.25BA_download_games) and for newly released games check [r/crackwatch](https://reddit.com/r/crackwatch).

> Should I install & use *insert random anti-virus software* instead of using Windows Defender?
|

No don't do that, windows defender is more than good enough, you don't need another anti-virus, but if you're set on installing a secondary AV the one worth installing is Malwarebytes. Please read the note [here](#anti-virus).
|
|
!!!warning Stay away from Avast, Norton and McAfee, these are "bloatware" and generally not safe software.

### Torrenting
|
|
|
|
!!!warning Torrenting can get you in trouble with your ISP, so make sure to use a [VPN](https://www.reddit.com/r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH/wiki/adblock-vpn-privacy#wiki_.25BA_vpn). Most VPNs offer a killswitch to prevent data leaks, but it's much more effective to [bind your VPN to your client](https://redd.it/ssy8vv), preventing it from connecting at all unless your VPN is on.
