The problem with this data is that there are a lot of external factors that are usually not considered in the data-set, like for example that a poorer family won’t have time to breast feed because the mom has to go back to work asap.
You will not always accurately flatten out socioeconomic, etc factors because there are no test-subjects per se, but rather just pooling.
Ok I get your point. But I haven’t been in any tracker that ask for any private information. You just need a burner email for all you torrent related activity and that’s it.
In a public tracker your IP is also tracked, and while is not tied to an email, you’re open to honeypot attacks (that’s how law firms try to fine you in Germany). This way they find out exactly what you tried to download, timestamped.
As these assholes always go for the low hanging fruit, you’re mostly safe in private trackers.
Actually that subreddit is locked for ever. There is a website, opentrackers.org, that is kinda the authority right now. It’s operated by a trustworthy “poor” guy who has been long enough in the scene.
Some of them are hard to get in, but TL and IPT are damn easy, they open up many times per year. And if you download new stuff or big torrents is always freelech so it doesn’t even count to your ratio. So, it’s quite easy actually.
Any third party app that can receive your database would do. iOS supports system-wide 3rd party password managers. I use Strongbox bc I can sync it with Windows and Mac.
Ohhh the thumbnail commenter finally spotted on Lemmy!
