    what’s the technical basis for this anyway? is it safe to use without a vpn (ie. is it using p2p connections). didn’t find something immediately in the docs, maybe someone can shed some light?

      It’s basically just a website that searches different providers for a file and then plays said file. It is safe to use without a VPN (though still better to use with a VPN for general safety measure) as its the same as watching youtube or whatever… Hope that helps :)
