I haven’t updated utorrent since 2012 and I’ve never noticed any differences. I have it setup how I like it and it works.

Not updated since 2012? How is it not full of security holes?

No, if you did update it it would be full of security holes.

Yeah, 2.2 was like 2010 IIRC. It looks like they’ve since released a 2023 “2.2.1” to trick people in to downloading the updated spyware version.

Incidentally, this is the kind of behavior why I never personally recommend it to anyone I know.
