I ask because I was wondering if you moved everything to a remote webhost and use CloudFlare to manage access if that would bypass the UK laws? If the webhost was located in the US or even a neutral country, would the UK law still apply because of your citizenship? Or, could you register any domain names etc. in someone else's name or account? Someone you know and trust where the UK laws do not apply to? I'm poor white trash but want to help anyway that I can. I have a friend who lives in the UK and all the shit going on over there is horrifying. So let me know if I can do anything. Sorry about the very delayed reply, as i am pretty much not using emby anymore so haven't even visited here in over a month. The UK has written the law in such a way that I am liable wherever its hosted, and because of age gates and cloudflare protection getting more and more common on the source sites, its now even harder to automate the backend to update the catalog, which is now at least 6 months behind current releases. I still have the database somewhere archived (not even sure where now), but its huge. it was over half a terabyte. So uploading it is also a good no-no, im not using my bandwidth to do that. Even posting it on a hdd to someone else would require a 1 tb hdd and hours of copying it there (maybe days because of millions of files). I might ressurect it in time as a dht (torrent) kind of network, that's an option but i dont think that adheres to embys own policies.
