Empress is a video game cracker, the only active cracker who releases games protected by Denuvo. That's an extremly popular digital rights management system for stop game cracks used by Triple A game publishers. She is also completely nuts and regularly has very odd rants. It appears she's accusing 1337x owners of inserting malware into releases. 1337x is a popular site for accessing torrents of cracked games and one Empress regularly released on.

Any idea on if her accusations are actually true?
