The spirit is commendable, and the idea is arguably nice. But the free (as in speech) internet is over. I don't like it, but the days of these libraries are counted. Just like the other pirate sites. (Don't visit torrentfreak.com, if you don't want to get depressed. It reports bad news every day, and it only gets worse lately.)
- wincy 2y agoYandex is an exceptional resource for finding torrent sites these days. It’s still out there.
- not_your_vase 2y agoI'm not saying that they don't exist anymore. I'm saying that you should do a yandex search now, and repeat the same search in January. If you compare the number of results, most probably you will see what I'm talking about.

- idunnoman1222 2y agoTpb is still up after what 25 years?
- not_your_vase 2y agoArguably, you are right. There are a few things that shouldn't be ignored: - It used to operate very publicly, but now it is just as opaque black box - no one know who is behind it, operators barely communicate with the community. - It used to be public enemy #1 of the (copyright-) world. Today it is barely a sidenote of the yearly notorious market report. Though the fight against pirate sites is stronger than ever, TPB seems to be silently tolerated. People with certain mindset might wonder why that is.
