Interesting! I didn't know this was a thing.

Sonarr and radarr can automate torrent gathering. They can read a list of shows from places like Trakt, then ask torrent sites for the download once it becomes available.

Public torrent sites are less reliable and under relatively more surveillance. Private trackers are a good option, but it takes a bit of effort to gain entry and maintain membership.

There are also platforms like Seren or Fen, which are addons for a media program called Kodi. These programs can automate streaming from non-torrent sources. Free sources can have limited bandwidth, but it's watchable usually. You'll get the occasional gap in an episode. Paid services like Real Debrid can offer faster streaming and better coverage.

All of this should be behind a VPN.
