Yesterday there was a controversial movie torrent that was getting 1000s of downloads and was on the “popular this week” page, and today it’s just gone. I went to the uploader’s account page and it’s not there either. Just like it never existed.
I’m SUPER curious of the story behind what happened. Did the uploader take it down? 1337? Why?
EDIT: The movie was Lady Ballers 2023 (wasn’t sure if I was allowed to say) I did a little more research, and I think the copy the uploader put out was YTS but I don’t think they were affiliated with them. Maybe YTS told them to take it down? The movie is on their (YTS/YIFY’s) website.
Are you using something else? I’m on IPT, never had any issues, but I’m willing to move.
No I got a better job after that and pretty much only pirate popular stuff that shows on 1337x, TPB, or TorrentGalaxy. I used to pirate mostly software but because of the increasing risk of ransomware and FUD rootkit botnets, I’d rather just pay $30 for it. I’ll still pirate something and run it in a VM if I /really/ need to and it’s $1,000 and I’m going to use it 5 times, but I usually just buy software now.
I’ll probably get a seedbox setup and run Plex for media soon, in which case I’ll just use open trackers or find some non-IPT private tracker.
