README List of VaM Creators Who Track their Patreons [2025-01-18] [Various Creators]

Suddenly I have a wild idea where I sell my own free content on those sites.

So in order to beat the pirates I become the pirate pirating my own content.

That is actually exactly how to do it, can't prevent piracy, but you can direct it if you're the one that does it first, and that's easy to do as the original creator.

Do it. Any other creator reading this and seething should also. We just pirates here, we're not monsters profiting off your work.

I'm not sure but I think you'll need a Chinese ID to be able to sell on those sites.

I'm not sure but I think you'll need a Chinese ID to be able to sell on those sites.

Under normal circumstances, it is not necessary. You only need to have an Alipay or WeChat account and associate it with a bank account that can be used on these software.

The good thing about fictional characters, u can say they're whatever age you want, the bad thing about fictional characters, your opposition can claim they look like whatever age they want too.

It's the kind of law that can be used to remove inconvenient artists from the picture. That is an interesting page, you can see what countries are most degenerate. like tonga. You're not allowed to own it but it's legal to produce it, that's suspicious as fuck.

But yeah, making fictional crimes illegal is such a waste of law enforcement resources, and bad for artistic freedom too. Like... Guts gets raped a bit as a kid in berserk, so wouldn't this make Berserk illegal in a lot of countries? I think Alucard had a similar situation too so hellsing as well

Fictional shit should be universally legal no matter what it is. By making certain disgusting things illegal in fiction, public awareness of those issues goes down as essentially nobody's allowed to really talk about it in real depth, even philosophically.

fkn bastards, murdering animals over memes.

It's a bit more sinister than them just having the resources though. They'll always have the resources, even the smallest, most toothless government will have the resources to do it. It's a matter of resource allocation.

Someone in that government decided that a squirrel appearing in some memes was a bigger issue than human trafficking, drug trafficking, and just organized crime in general; and allocated resources accordingly. It's just a matter of how deep the corruption runs.

When governments are prioritizing suppression of people who criticize them over actual crime, or just real issues in general then you know your government has gone full fascist; by definition. That's how you know you are living under a government that cannot stand up to even the slightest scrutiny without being exposed as evil.

That's generally how it goes with censorship, the only reason to censor speech or writing, is if the very idea that you're wrong is a strong threat to your continued success or survival. And it can only be a threat if you are wrong, and you will only respond this way if you know you are wrong.

Censorship has always existed only to hide truth. You don't need censorship to limit the spread of falsehoods because falsehoods will wilt under real scrutiny, but truth won't.

Antivirus doesn't pick .cs cuz it's simply uncompiled text, once compiled and executed from a trusted signed process like vam, you're done, unless you use something like ESET. As for vam security holes, it varies in severity, sure applicationopenurl is considered high severity but you also have to question yourself, how a malicious actor could use this security hole in his advantage? I believe a couple of people already knew about applicationopenurl for a long time and someone decided to report it recently since I already disclosed dynamiccsharp doesn't do shit. But this security loophole is practically hard to implement in a useful manner, challenge is how you gonna pass a parameter or achieve persistency? I have come across sophisticated vam malware (typically Asian) but none of them used it.

I designed Sharp VaM Malware Scanner so nothing can literally escape my grasp, it's a bit technical with a lot of log. I went and included even already blocked threats and hard to implement ones, who knows maybe someone knows a bypass already, you can't trust dynamic to handle all the security, period.

Thanks for your work. I had no idea this was possible, although it should have been obvious that VaM is a security nightmare. I currently have a 2TB VAR collection that I will just wipe and re-download from F95 only due to ironically, being much safer. I always had my doubts on the Chinese VAR's so I'll be more cautious now.

I don't believe the bamair incident was done by bamair
It was done by someone who edited the var before sharing
They added a script that deleted your addonpackages folder when you opened the scene
A lot of people think it was a crazy 3D modeler that used to come here and rant almost daily about theft and piracy
but there is no proof of what exactly happened so this is all speculation

Yes very true, its a shame she passed away.

You know that, this is not 'legit' microsoft crap?
Firstly, even if they would even care about of yours system license at all, why they would ask you to pay in BTC?
And why using some weird domain tr.gg?
There are also some minor typos in there.

Seems like pretty annoying ransomware, either from one too much porn site, or discord 'steam gift'.
Nothing really common with this thread?
Unless one of the creators included the script causing it in his var. Then yeah, that could be disturbing, and requires some preventing actions towards this creator immediatelly.
