I don't think there's any permanent solution to service providers deciding to not provide you with a service. One could hack their way through by applying workarounds where possible, although that's only temporary. Anonymity networks generally solve the tracking problem, but they come with their own issues. It's impractical to use darknets for daily tasks, especially when you have a slow connection, plus the lack of mass adoption.

They do this every once in a while. I recall them doing this some years back in NYC.

Similar to military trainings done in cities. Remember the training in Miami almost ten years ago? https://incogtube.com/watch?v=j1BhRNfY1lo . This was in LA more recently: https://incogtube.com/watch?v=cISSyQkm1Ug There are many other examples from other cities over the years as well. It's not exactly uncommon.

Easier than building mock cities to train in urban, at home environments but still scary to witness and always has people wondering, "What if..."

Non-Toxic Gas to Be Deployed in 100+ NYC Locations, Including Transit, In Bio-Attack Readiness Test
The test gas is non-toxic and poses no health risk to the public
Published October 11, 2021 • Updated on October 12, 2021 at 10:10 pm

New York City's response plans for a chemical or biological attack will be put to the test in the coming weeks as part of a federal preparedness study.

The MTA says the Department of Homeland Security working alongside a team of researchers and city agencies will deploy a non-toxic gas this month at about 120 locations across the city, including transit.

Most of the locations will be above ground, including some parks. A number of below-ground subway stations will also be included, though details on which ones weren't known.

The tests will be conducted on five separate days between Oct. 18 and 29.

OY VEY GOYIM ONLY CHRISTIANITY BAD ALL OTHER RELIGIONS DON’T EVEN DESERVE MENTION

Shit thread. Completely worthless.

Would the Catholic church not have burned all the books of the native Americans and later claimed that they had no written language?

Except they had no written language. None of them. Fuck your revisionism.

For getting around geo blocking or downloading torrents, any of the big name VPN should be fine (Express, Nord, PIA). If you need VPN to use in a specific country, maybe ask around the expat sub or forums for that country. But truly anonymous VPN probably don't exist, maybe rent a server somewhere to setup Shadowsock, pay with crypto, then logon to it from public wifi? I don't know if that's secure enough, never really needed that level of anonymity.

From what I can see, it's a game where you have to do specific tasks to get the password of the next archive. It also looks like it was originally available as a torrent: Galactic Disco Frenzy.7z/Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy.txt

[ = / \ = \ / = : : : ] One last request, please seed and don't do the old switcharoo!

but I failed to find it, and I have thirty search engines in qBittorrent, and since Lufi is a temporary file uploader, if the file expires (and I'm unable to see the time remaining), no one can download it unless it gets reuploaded. I guess I'll wait until it actually expires and someone tags me to upload it to Nextcloud. (I think that tagging will cause a notification to appear for me, right?)
