What are the advantages of usenet when it comes to your security? Given that you’re using VPN anyway. But with usenet you also need to find a way to pay anonymously for it, otherwise what’s the point?
To add to that: The “sharing” part is what’s prohibited in German law. (Remember: when torrenting you also upload chunks of the data to others.) The pure download is kind of a grey area and won’t be prosecuted.
That’s why i feel much more safe using Usenet.
Also, the fractured nature of usenet makes it more resilient to prosecutors to actually pinpoint anything.

The point is that you can download stuff without uploading it at the same time.
I don’t have to share copyrighted material in order to download it. That’s the big advantage.

Exactly - should’ve mentioned that.
