In Russia most are piss-poor and you can go to prison for nothing, but you can easily get 300 Mbit/sec if you live in a large city. We don't have 5G, but LTE is super-fast.
I don't know how this shit works and why it's like this. I have a 100 Mbps connection, but I don't need it, I was on 10 Mbps until I asked my ISP to fix it a couple of years ago. Now I use it to seed illegally downloaded shows — at least it's of use to someone else 🤷

Some stuff has crazy ratios, it is 466,09 for Ubuntu 20.10 DVD ISO for example. Global stats are on the screenshot. I use an old G4 MacMini as a seedbox and I think I've reset the counters when I replaced Debian on that thing with Void, ~150 Tbs are still impressive 😅

There is this website — cinemaz.to, it's mostly old movies or European shows produced for internal markets and rarely known outside the country it was shot in. I enjoy such stuff! I rarely delete the files once I've downloaded something and keep seeding till kingdom come. When disk space became a problem for internal HDD, I've bought an external 2Tb one exclusively for this and moved everything there. That disk is still ok🤷

Oh, it was in danger a couple of times! The MacMini that does seeding 24/7 sits on top of a book cabinet and one of my cats took a habit of jumping up there and pushing stuff — you know, doing cat things™ 😹
He even did that to the external hard drive a couple of times, but it has fallen on the table next to the cabinet so it survived. The cat learned that I don't like this habit of his and no longer does that, good cat!

And yes, ~150 TB is insane to me. Did you ever change hard disks? There's a lot of reading operation.
