Yeah I've been doing the same way for so long and honestly I don't have any problems other than the couple of times I forgot to enable the VPN and got a slap on the wrist from my ISP. The shows I like to watch are spread out across so many services that it would cost me a fortune to subscribe to them all, so I do use eztv a lot and before that RARBG (RIP).
I'm disabled and on a fixed income and there's no way I can afford 4 or 5 streaming services. I don't even watch that much other than an occasional series like Silo and a movie once in a while. I think a lot more stuff is tracked now than it used to be(I even got hit for an older game) and it's just not worth it to try without a VPN.
Silo was really good! Can't wait for season 2. I got hot for downloading Pretty In Pink for my wife. Hahaha!
Never saw Pretty in Pink but enjoyed Molly Ringworm in The Breakfast Club. I also have a Kindle and am on the 3rd book in the Silo series. The other thing about e-books is that even bestsellers aren't tracked by anyone. There are nowhere near as many books on various sites as there are movies and TV shows, but you can still find just about anything.
