# What To Use For Piracy

DO NOT USE PROPRIETARY SOFTWARE EVEN FOR PIRACY!

Regardless of the ethical issues, free software is simply better
than proprietary software. Also free formats like AV1 are good,
but free software > free format.

Here is a tier list.

* S - Sharing on the darknet.
* A - Torrent, IPFS, &c. Free and decentralized.
* B - Personal websites.
* C - Non-personal websites that don't require JS.
* F - Pixeldrain, &c. Partially open source, i.e. still non-free.
* Z - MEGA, Google Drive, &c. Literal botnets.
