Not trying to be rude, but the fact that you are asking this question demonstrates the fact that you shouldn’t.

If you want to contribute to free and open information, set up a VPN, bind QBitorrent or another FOSS torrenting software to it, and seed as much as you can.

Help digital archivists and data horders if you have the storage.

Spread accurate information on this stuff to help others.

If you really want to help build out the grey and black market infrastructure for data and digital goods, you need to learn advanced infosec and programming skills and that takes a long time and lots of study.

Be Russian.

The end.

Well, for starters you’re already off to a horrible start.

You were so obsessed with whether or not you could, you didn’t stop to think if you should.

If I was going to do it I would only host the site on tor or i2p. I’d only host magnet links with minimal metadata and aim to have the site work without JavaScript. Maybe a small flask application or something to populate the pages using templates. Very basic, light weight and secure.

I would also release a monthly dump of the site to allow it to survive in the event of a takedown .

This way you have a minimal attack surface , you are protected from legal threats as they dont know where or who is hosting and they dont have a hosting provider to send the notices to.

With regular dumps of the site , taking it down becomes futile as there are copies out there in the wild, that can spring up the next day if needed. Its like a diversified seed bank if you will 😉.

Find a fool who’ll do it for you.

I wonder if there could be a torrent site that is decentralized enough that no one really has significant liability for running it, like Bittorrent itself but for the indexing/curation aspect.
