Anyone else having piratebay and 1337x redirect their browsers to weird German porn lately?

I couldn’t say, but I’ve had my german porn changed to shady pirate websites and it’s infuriating

Thanks for the Reddit response.

the reddit response ?

Yeah when instead of anything constructive or related the thread nosedives into puns and other cheap jokes.

Remember folks, Reddit invented levity. Before Reddit “sarcasm” was just a Tuscan pasta dish.

ok

Probably because your original comment sounds like a shitpost. If that’s an authentic problem you have then it sounds like you’ve got malware in your browser, or maybe someone with higher access in your network hierarchy (apartment or university admin) is doing a redirect of some kind, though why to porn i cant imagine so I think we’re back to “malware in the stack”.

I think malware is fairly unlikely considering I’m running Firefox with only Ublock Origin and NoScript on Debian on a month old PC.

I forget if I’m using Cloudflare DNS via Firefox’s DNS protection or if I’m letting my router handle it through the reputable VPN’s DNS, but I’d consider them both unlikely sources of that kind of issue.

I’m at a loss.

I was on leetx a few times this week, everything was working great.

Oooooh schwester!

People arent using prowlarr or jackett to search torrents en-masse?

Never heard of those, so… no?

You should learn about prowlarr and then set it up along with radarr and sonarr (and whatever other *arr service you’d find useful, there’s a bunch).

Which domains are you using?

The ones Wikipedia says are official.

Both show the correct domains so I have no idea. They both load the normal sites for me.

Maybe it’s whatever DNS service you’re using?
