Comment on ‘Doom: The Dark Ages’ DRM Is Locking Out Linux Users Who Bought the Game

Pirating is getting so hard for me that it’s becoming not an option. Comcast has started blocking vpn nodes for me, but only of I am torrenting. And if I turn off the vpn, DMCA notices out the ass. I’m kinda stuck.

What VPN and where are you located?

Couple things you can do, try changing your router DNS to quad9 or open DNS, make sure you’re not using Comcast default DNS servers.

Try a new VPN provider, I’ve been using Torguard for almost a decade, zero issues, there are discount codes where you can get it for $29/year.

I have a dedicated desktop for seeding, I upload about 1TB per day on soulseek/nicotine+ and torrents.

  Thank you, you’re a god among men. I use a pihole for DNS, but I will give Torguard a try because I’ve been thinking of getting rid of private internet access since they went all corporate.

    Pihole is fine, just make sure it’s not using the Comcast DNS settings. I have a pile instance also that I use to block ads
