Maybe a stupid question, do you need to use a vpn when downloading from drunkenslug? Or is it secure to download without one?
They have an SSL connection option, which I've personally been using for about a year now with no VPN. I believe most indexers don't like VPNs, but I could be wrong
How do I use the SSL connection?
Use the ssl port
yes like the other guy said, use the SSL port provided to you by the indexer. Usually 553 or something similar
