To answer your question directly: No idea.
Of tangential importance to your question: Apparently TPB has been considered untrustworthy for a number of years, probably since it "returned" after the original crew behind it did a stint in Swedish prison. Infected torrents have been found there and the "skull" ratings mean very little.
*laughs in Linux*
I admittedly dont do a ton of sailing, but yeah I feel like avoiding TPB has been recommended for at least a decade now
Has any pirate site ever been trustworthy? And if you run pirated software, you get what you get. Roll the dice or wait for a Steam sale.
Yes. Next question.
Haha ok psyop
I mean its a spectrum and many private trackers are much further down the trust side than the pirate bay
