Just noticed that both 1337x and TorrentGalaxy mark IGGGAMES as a "trusted uploader"

people_are_cute@lemmy.sdf.org to Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com – 136 points –

But I remember seeing that group being blacklisted and called out in multiple Piracy communities and wikis a few years ago.

What happened? Are they good now?

Both 1337 and TG are some of the worst places to get your torrents from. They themselves are about as trust worthy as Trump on a quaalude.

Recommendations?

Private trackers are the safest. A public one will always be sketch. But if you want a public one, give therarbg.com a try.

@ultratiem @piracysails The piracy megathread site says that's a fake clone https://rentry.co/megathread-unsafe-sites

LOL. Oh no some random dude made a list a long time ago. Oh no. A clone of what? Because rarbg was shutdown a while ago. Maybe think for yourself.

Also, the site looks nothing like the original rarbg, so I guess they failed there to. It’s another website linking to torrents, nothing more. I’ve not seen a single thing suss about it and I’ve been using it for months.
