I want to build a “pirate portfolio” of all my personal fan works. There’s manga, anime, documentaries, book chapters, all sorts of things I’ve translated myself from Russian and English. Mostly Japanese, British and modern Russian content. No USA.

What do you guys think would be the best place to host the website? Not the content itself, which I plan on uploading to mega until I can afford to build a small home server.

I live in a “pirate-friendly” country (Brazil), but it won’t make any difference if the website platform itself is located in a regulated country, am I right? They can have it taken down anyway.

I’m thinking of nothing special, even a simple rentry page, minimally customized, would do.

So, what do you guys think I should do to protect my website from being randomly taken down? How to post the links? Where to host the websites? Thanks!

    Please do not host a website on a home server. Let alone a piracy oriented one.

    Unless you have strong knowledge of cybersecurity best practices AND keep up to date AND still use some form of CDN to mitigate DDOS attacks, you are begging for your home network to be compromised and/or to be DDOS’;d to oblivion (and most ISPs will be fairly cross at that point). Also, if you DO have said knowledge then you have even more reasons to never do this

    I also question the wisdom of making a portfolio of all the questionably legal shit you have done since a lot of the things that make Brazil “safe” for these kinds of activity (low purchasing power and nobody gives a fuck) also makes it easy to be made an example of with no repercussions. But… you do you.
