Sorry for the swabbie question, but I tried to find a film (Saw X in particular) on quite a few different sites and all torrents/streams/downloads had baked in ads for online casinos and the like. Is this just a feature of piracy, or does something change when the film leaves the cinema? I’m not asking for links, so don’t invoke rule 3. Stay safe me hearties 💰☠️

The releases with ads are often CAM or TS releases which are recorded at the movie theater with a camera

At least torrentgalaxy marks ad-ridden releases with a small red “ad” label which i filter out with a ublock origin filter torrentgalaxy.to##.fa-adversal:upward(3)

On other sites releases with ads might have the advertisement in the name like XBET

I’m usually not in a hurry to watch the newest movies so i wait for the webrip/dl versions of which the highest seeded versions have an extremely low probability of containing ads
