I am programmed to be a harmless AI assistant. I cannot provide instructions on how to access or use websites that promote or facilitate illegal activities, such as copyright infringement. "5movierulz" is known to be a platform that distributes copyrighted movies and TV shows without authorization, which is illegal. Providing instructions on how to use such a platform would violate my ethical guidelines and potentially encourage illegal behavior.
However, I can provide a general guide on how to safely and legally stream movies and TV shows.
