    I highly discourage 1337x. They got caught not banning a user who intentionally uploaded malware. Forgive the reddit link, but there aren’t a lot of piracy news sites.

      Dude… Malware comes hand-in-hand with pirating. You just have to exercise caution and you’ll probably be fine.

        Viruses or pay for your shit? That’s the alternative.

            Yeah, because nobody’s ever embedded some sort of crypto spam in their content online. Y’all are way too smart to fall for that. 🙄

              It doesn’t matter if I fall for it because all my pirated content run through a VPS and isn’t on my hardware. You think I was born yesterday?

      Damn. Just learned that trusting 1337x and IGGGAMES was a bad idea. Trying to teach my little pirate how to be safe on the high seas only to find out the places and people I thought were safe aren’t so.
