Hello all,

I’m a huge amateur when it comes to this stuff (I had a guy hold my hand on the phone and walk me through this) but I use Newsgroupdirect and buy blocks when they go on sale.

Is there a better group to do this from (or cheaper). I’m happy here but I saw an article that had some different places listed and it got me thinking.

Which group do you use?

    What you’re saying isn’t correct, at least for properly configured private trackers and clients.

    That’s exactly what I said it’s for “to check and make sure your configuration is correct”. (here: https://old.lemmy.world/comment/7654711) I used it in the past and found out my split tunnel was leaking info on the DHT. It can help others make sure they aren’t leaking data too.

      What you said was: “Private tracker torrents are still visible to the public” and this isn’t true.

        I provided the link - if you want to be disingenuous that is your prerogative.

        Private tracker torrents are still visible to the public.
