Strangers can connect to your piratebox and download whatever files (not neccessarily pirated) you put on it. Movies, music, books etc.
A piratebox has no internet connection and in order to browse it one has to connect directly to it’s network.
Think about your favourite bar or your toilet at work having a network with no internet access, that let’s you browse fresh warez every time you visit.
I think you can even grant upload rights and make it a public dead mailbox for warez.
Piratebox is discontinued so it won’t get any new updates, but there are a bunch of other projects you can do like setup a file server and share it with an open ap. Just make sure to secure the pi itself and whatnot.
What a shame
To be honest, i read about it a long time ago, but haven’t used the software, just liked the concept because it’s so seductively simple: random anonymous device, no internet connection, no isp, no trouble. Perfect deniability.
Only lower level: switching drives 😂

Well… I think it is discontinued but there are mix things. Maintaining projects is just difficult. It is a nice software.
what? that’s insane. and i can look at everything others have in their piratebox? but how do i connect to the network without wifi?
No internet, just local wifi network. Pirateboxes aren’t meshed.
