idluckyone Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 (edited) Hello people! I need some advice about sharing.A concrete case:I took a giveaway software. Registration is done offline with a common license code for everybody who took that giveaway. That giveaway could last, 24h, 48h, 72h, 7d, 30d etc. But in the end, the giveaway ends.I want to share that with the rest of the world, or sometimes just a limited number of friends, relatives and neighbours.I do NOT want that link to be tracked back to my IP. That version that is given away is not regulary hunted by the company that had the giveaway, but you never know, so why risk it, if it can be avoited. And I do not want to pay money for sharing something for free (I hope it is possible).Option 1.1: I remember that our community member "n0_risk!", great guy/gall, in the past used to share with us some GOTD unwrapped and that helped me very much because I could take and test/use the giveaway that I have missed (for various reasons). I could use the same file sharing service that he used.Option 1.2: Use a VPN or Public Proxy to upload to a free file sharing service, for a limited time or not and save the link to a service like pastebin and publish that link on a free blog/forum platform.Note: I heard that some public proxy keep their data only for 2 weeks, in this time, a legal action, not always has time to do so.... so I heard, so not really reliable information.Option 2: Share using DC(++).Option 3: Create a torrent, also accounts on trackers and upload it there.Option 4: Other sharing options that I do not know about.Other Info:If I choose only to share it with my neghbours and not the hole world (like creating a public torrent), I do not like that some neghbour of mine to know that I was the one sharing. Some of them might be cops and you never really know people, so why risk it; many times one idiot can ruin one useful and free project, just because he knows the other persons involved.I know that there are free P2P software for friend-to-friend sharing, but I want to avoind that somebody on that P2P to get the IPs to all the members, like a cop could do.If I choose to share it with the hole world (preferably) (e.g. by creating a torrent) it could help me legally, that I could only share links to that software and not knowing that I am also the initial uploader.I also know that many times these giveaways hit the torrent sites, but not all and not on every well known tracker.So, guys I need your help about this situation: Giveaway software shared for free, without legally complications.e.g.: http://archives-giveawayoftheday.toile-libre.org/ - I want to do something like this; not the website, but its utility.- What to use for sharing? Upload to a free file storage service (like mediafire), in what country is better (because of their legal actions against 'piracy') or create a torrent, or ... some other option I do not know.- How to upload so my IP would not be found, or in the worst case, to late for a legal action against my sharing actions.- What free platform to use for sharing the links? Blog, forum, what service, and if that service has options in multiple servers to choose from, the server in what country should I choose?... and all other informations you know to be useful in such a situation.I know this is quite a common situation in sharing, but I could not find anything important on internet by myself on how to do this without getting cought by the law. Giveaway is a giveaway but as far as I know, 99% of the cases, is not legal to share them later or to people that did not participate in that specific giveaway.People with experience for this are more than welcome.I would like to thank you in advance for any useful information that you can give me.PS: Please do not post to ask questions, about this and that, because I do not know more about this, and my purpose on this topic is to find more about this particular situation "Free sharing of untouched giveaway software without legally complications."
