I also strongly appreciate Sam Harris' heterodoxy in his decision of which content to include in the course. + +Although I praised the course content, I criticized the app/website. It's bloated, contains trackers/analytics, and requires the user to identify themself to gain access. When I made that entry over a year and a half ago, there was a torrent containing the Introductory Course, but whoever created it did a *very* poor job. The mp3 files had strange problems and it was missing almost all the course content. Since 2021, some content has also been added to the course. + +Luckily someone made a [new torrent](magnet:?xt=urn:btih:cf8c43a4b66c55b7773127d2c9ec26a570b2ffb1&dn=Waking%20Up%20Course&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.opentrackr.org%3A1337%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fopentracker.i2p.rocks%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.openbittorrent.com%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2F9.rarbg.com%3A2810%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fopen.demonii.com%3A1337%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fexodus.desync.com%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fopen.stealth.si%3A80%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.torrent.eu.org%3A451%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.moeking.me%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fexplodie.org%3A6969%2Fannounce "Waking Up Course Torrent") of the Waking Up app content and it's very well made. It contains almost all the course content and each of the ~1000 audios has a title, description, track number, and artwork. Clearly, whoever made it put a lot of time and effort into it. + +I think Sam Harris and all those who produced the course content definitely deserve to be paid for their work and that you should make a donation if you're able to, but I'm glad there's a torrent of it now. Having listened to some of the content myself, frankly I think it's just too important to be locked behind a bloated surveillance app forever. |
