<n recent years, AI has made it much easier to create new websites and tools. That also applies to pirate sites, including TorrentClaw, a torrent search engine that’s largely built with AI. The site's TrueSpec feature, for example, checks what’s inside torrents. The results reveal a recurring malware trick, where a genuine VLC player is used as a decoy to load a malicious file.

yeah but you have to admit, AI is going to make piracy better and easier by accelerating the development of piracy sites, software, and stuff that would have taken a whole team to develop

guessing they require their slop to function? when was the last good movie released? like 2010? last good tv show? 2000? video game? probably late 90s

>>110043380
Why does every site made with ai look the same

>>110043411
Even if you only care about old content, why not use AI to make public torrent sites even better curated, more organized, and malware-free?

braindead 3rd worlders that eat hollywood slop don't really count

>>110043418
any reputable site is already malware free. did you make this or something? you're awfully defensive

>>110043425
>any reputable site is already malware free.
Sure, but AI always improves things by automating the simple stuff that takes human time away from staff.

There is nothing old being pirated, period. I am trapped in 0 seed hell

>There is nothing old being pirated, period.
bullshit. there's a lot being seeded on public trackers, but you need to use private trackers to find all the old content.
>>
for the past few weeks now I've been seeing blatant virus torrents flood several torrent sites and many sites being affected by heavy DDOS attacks. It's not even been subtle. Nyaa for some reason has faced a lot of these attacks and account hijacks and takeovers

With a new site being launched that now claims to filter out any malware torrents by default it just makes me completely suspicious and even more paranoid of it
>>
>>110044949
seems like a natural evolution. all sites will have to eventually protect themselves from malware.
