Re: No surprise, old site, meet the new (same) sites said by fAcEtIOUs:said by knightmb:Given how many sites are similar (but with a different theme) to the site. It just being the most popular makes the biggest target, so really, nothing has changed. Something has changed. Grow large enough to be noticed and the MPAA & the RIAA will paint a big target on your back. If you plan on running one of these sites that will replace TPB, then you better hope you make a lot of money - to pay for all the lawyers you will need. How is that change? Napster anyone?
same show different day
Also, with at least 50% of people using DHT (unknowingly) expect all of TPB to live on for a very long time. |

doen't matter - the point is with so many DHT enabled on so many clients expect to see TPB live on for quite some time without any need for servers (well enormous static servers that is) |

I'd be curious to know how DHT works if it's disabled in the torrent? Just because you're logged into DHT, doesn't mean you're actively using it for every torrent. Your client can log into DHT, but if it's disabled for the torrent, you won't use DHT peers for that torrent.
Unless by associating it with ratio spoofing you mean you have to use a hacked client? If so, how many people do you think will run a hacked client or even know how to? |

Well to the last of my knowledge anyone with an older client of Utorrent that had enabled DHT would have it enabled on every torrent.
This allowed many to trade on pivate trackers without incurring ratio penalties.
As for TPB i can 100% assure you DHT is alive and kicking. |
