I was going to comment that torrent client, torrent search and VPN aren't necessarily used for piracy, and then I saw the search query.
Realistically though, these three publishers must've added “netflix” as keyword, and Flathub must've not noticed/cared. Still funny as fuck, though.
Also ProtonVPN is missing the blue check mark so it is published by the community. Not sure ProtonVPN would approve of the world Netflix to advertise their service.
Yep, it's in the description:
I don't think they'd care though, they have an entire page dedicated to netflix on their own website:
https://protonvpn.com/streaming/netflix
Edit: they just copied the description of the Android app word for word
Pretty sure they wouldn't, indeed.
ahah great indeed. I also wanted to comment that Torrent... aren't necessary for piracy.
Also torrents can be much faster & secure than direct downloads/mirrors.
That is often true indeed. Especially with famous content that is also large in size. So 10GB files that everybody want to download now! You really want to go for bittorrent. That is also the reason I was trying to convince those AI people to use bittorrent to share their large models.. But no... they keep using git (like hugging faces does). I give up on AI people.
In my experience, it really depends. Like, for the Arch Linux iso it's basically the same, but for some more niche distros, there might not be many seeds so direct download from a local mirror might be faster.
Unfathomably based by the publishers, regardless.
Yeah, I checked and the publisher of Torrhunt and the client did add “netflix torrent” as a search term, the third party individual who put ProtonVPN there added “Watch Netflix from any device” in the description for some reason.
Flathub is based.
