The Pirate Bay And Torrentz Alternatives Slowly Thinning: Here's What To Watch Out For And The Few Good Working Ones
C. de LacyWith a number of anti-piracy groups popping out one after another, torrenting, cracking and online piracy are starting to become more complex and harder to pull off. Here are some tips on how to adjust to these changes and an update on what's going on in the torrenting community.
For those who have not been able to follow updates from the official Google Security Blog, a recent update just a few days ago indicated that Google is getting harsh with leading torrent sites like The Pirate Bay and Torrents. This is for rolling out the new "Repeat offender" policy.
However, this isn't about taking down the sites and slapping their copyright infringement cases on their faces. This was merely pointing to malicious ads that plague file sharing sites, especially torrents.
This goes to show that upstart torrent alternatives seeking some attention may get a justice hammer treatment from Google as most of them relies on ad revenue, which sometimes contain malicious content.
The Pirate Bay, however, told TorrentFreak that the site is extremely unlikely to be involved with the global banning of such sites.
"I don't believe TPB will be flagged as a Repeat Offender. Ultimately, that will cost the ad agencies dearly if all their clients were permanently denied visitors," TPB told in the interview.
"So maybe in the long run those agencies with a tendency to serve malicious ads will better screen their clients," TPB spokesperson added.
Truth to be told, there's no immediate need in looking for alternatives for sites like The Pirate Bay and Torrentz as these sites are just doing fine. A sad fact is that the news trend of torrents sites started polluting the online scene after Kickass owner got put behind bars and the ceasing of the site.
Be sure to stay tuned for more news on the torrenting community.
