@beardalaxy @freddie_the_fed yeah, but where?

i have two sources of torrents (for programs/games), and one of 'em i thought infected me with spyware

which it probably did, because for some reason, someone was trying to log into an instagram account i forgot i even had in the last few days
@beardalaxy @freddie_the_fed i already used 1337.to, was looking on pirate bay that one time 'cuz i thought it was only available there
@beardalaxy @freddie_the_fed checking my torrents bookmarks... what do people think about kickass? i used to download stuff from there, but i remember them all going to the dark net or something
@beardalaxy @freddie_the_fed like, they didn't get away at all? everything's gotten shut down from the last time i heard about them?

because damn, that's genuinely crazy lmao

@ninja8tyu @freddie_the_fed there are clone sites (which i wouldn't trust) but yeah the original is toast

@ninja8tyu @beardalaxy @freddie_the_fed just use fitgirl repacks and whatever torrent is linked there should be safe. 1337.to I believe is considered voldemort for games otherwise. Since they had a snafu where one of their VIP trusted sources decided to start putting I think miners into their games releases.
So they aren't to be trusted outside of following from a trusted external.
@ninja8tyu @beardalaxy @freddie_the_fed I should add they never reprimanded him which is why they're in the shitlist for games anyways.
@Spooke @beardalaxy @freddie_the_fed what about ryuugames (not technically torrents, but may as well ask) and fapforfun for h-games?

i remember hearing igg was caught putting miners in their downloads, and...

man... i remember i used apunkagames and some site called something-city that's like the only source of snowy the bear games from back during wildtangent days...

and i forgot what gamecopyworld is...
@ninja8tyu haven't heard of any issues for ryuugames and fapforfun.
@Vidmastereon @Spooke @beardalaxy @freddie_the_fed oh yeah 100%, lost media is lost media if it's obscure as fuck

i think the only obscure shit i've saved from my computer is just my hentai

luckily there's still some seeds for some stuff, but it's a bit of a lost cause otherwise

maybe i should just use a spare laptop as a seeder or something...
