Thank you so much! I really appreciate you going above and beyond to provide me with some literature! :)

Thanks for clarifying!

My understanding is very basic, but from what I understand (please anyone feel free to correct me if you know more), it uses newsgroups, which is, historically speaking, an extremely old computer network communication system (conceived in '79) that was used for sharing news and files (it used to have forums and stuff on it too), and it works by transferring files in parts, then unpacking/assembling them at their end point.

Because they are in pieces during transfer, it’s very difficult for ISPs to know what you are downloading, therefore no VPN is necessary.

There is also no seeding because it’s a server-client model, not P2P.

I’ll have to talk to my brother because he’s the one that set it up, but i think we use dognzb and it seems to work quite well.

I’m working towards a better understanding of it so if that doesn’t answer your question please let me know and I’ll get you a proper answer :)

Or, hear me out for a sec: Usenet?
