Yes, downloading aka receiving copyright protected stuff is not illegal in my country, only the act of sharing aka uploading copyright protected stuff in order that it is available for other people, is illegal. You are even allowed to share copyright protected stuff with your “close circle of friends”
And that is why we don’t need a vpn to download from the usenet
Legally? 🤔
Or do you mean to say that a VPN isn’t strictly required?
Not legally, but I never use a VPN for newsgroup downloads.
