Effectively, there is no benefit. But if you are looking for really niche stuff you can't find on public trackers, you might have success on a private one with a focused category of torrents

@hyde I hope the same for windows users, but here we are haha

@hyde too an extent yes, but once again, if you give root access to malware because you don't know any better, well you're kind of just as screwed. If linux is to become more mainstream and be a daily driver of the average user, this could be a common scenario

@hyde running sketchy files on linux can be just as dangerous as windows. Linux's strength comes from it's trusted ecosystem of repositories and mainly open source programs which are easily auditable.

@Ivyymmy The whole point of that site is to distribute viruses, so if you didn't get one consider yourself lucky. You should run windows defender, malwarebytes and norton power eraser just to be sure

People still use the piratebay? Thought it was all viruses now

Fair, but how about the stuff you didn't notice? You'd never know. College professors are being tricked everyday.

Eh, not as big of a deal as people think. You've probably already read lots of AI generated content without even realising it

I'm actually impressed how active this place is

In a blog post published by Reddit, the company links to its Moderator Code of Conduct while saying “Dissent, debate, and discussions are foundational parts of Reddit” and it respects the right to protests. However, the rules state that the company can remove moderators if they are uncooperative.

We respect your right to protest, but we also respect our right to not let you protest lolll

I use private internet access for years with port forwarding after almost getting booted from my ISP, been fine here

It's hilarious how people have literally paid app developers for a better way to experience reddit and he's mad about that. Like sorry you're a talentless hack. The only reason reddit is as popular as it is was down to the stars aligning back in the digg days. That's about it, first mover advantage with your only other competitor shooting themselves in the foot.
