Just pirate it off https://1337x.to when it comes out. People rip things pretty fast if they're popular.

Their search function is terrible compared to TPB, which is saying a lot because TPB's is also not very good.

You got me briefly wondering what Three-Body Problem's search function meant.

I mean technically, search functions are a significant part of TBPs plot as the story advances. Just, you know, a very different kind of searching.

Aye, Thank you! I'm not that sophisticated with this stuff but I'll snag that link!

They said they were in Canada and I assure you Canada doesn't give a fuck about torrents. I've been torrenting copyrighted material for 15+ years now without a VPN, no issue. Like we are talking about tens of thousands of individual torrents for movies, shows, books and software.

Or if you're not too picky about quality just stream it from movie-web.app

Public torrent sites like that sketch me out. I don't like getting those funny/threatening emails from my ISP.

My ISP doesn't give a fuck so I don't use ISP-friendly tools. Not even a VPN. Only for geoblocking.
