A VPN isn't enough to stay safe, not if you're operating at the level of scene release groups. It's the most illegal thing that you can do in the pirate world. It's several years of jail if you get busted. If a kid get caught seeding a torrent, the punishment won't be that harsh, but actually providing the whole world with the most fresh stuff is something different.

If you care about torrents it's fine, but a lot of people don't care about it and have other methods of leeching. You can take a look at FXP (for starters).

Yes, the nukes actually have reasons, here's one overview: https://predb.net/status/nuked/

But there is something important to understand: we're not talking about torrents here. Torrenting is one of the unsafest ways to actually pirate stuff but for most people it's the easiest.

The Scene has rules on how to release things. If one of these rules are broken, the release will get nuked and the group can release a fix/proper release. Just take a look at some of the reasons on the link I provided :)

Yeah... Don't really understand but whatever ^^ I just tried to answer the question :D

[–] maluco@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 8 months ago

I love to share those :)

[–] maluco@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 8 months ago

Ah I see, thx for the info. Also just found the app list now ;)

I only have informations about the releases as they are pred, no tracker stuff.

What information about the nukes are you thinking of? Specify it a little bit more and I'll check if I can make it happen :)

So, what's "Sync for lemmy" or Jerboa? I have no clue. The links are working on the web version, it's the only thing I can test or fix :/

  1. The circle jerk stuff get's embedded automatically because of the wiki articles (I can't see that on the web version). Read them and you'll understand more.
  2. The scene is not interested in torrenting. Torrent is just the most insecure way to leech whatever you want. Maybe "Normal people" should find alternatives.
  3. Release groups are the first to release anything. Whatever you leech out there was firstly release by a release group.

Bookware is everything related to e-learning: https://predb.net/section/BOOKWARE/

The name comes from ages ago, often the content from Magazine/Books CD's/DVD's = Bookware. Nowadays it's 100% e-learning vod rips.

Should I rename the section to elearning (or something similar)?

[–] maluco@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

You're welcome :)

I've actually build per category feeds last year. The RSS link is also updated per category in the .

https://api.predb.net/feed/section/GAMES/ (GAMES can obviously be replaced by any other category) https://api.predb.net/feed/group/SUXXORS/ (SUXXORS can obviously be replaced by any other group)

https://predb.net/sections/ Here you can find all valid sections. As I'm cleaning up the DB the numbers of each section change overtime.

[–] maluco@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 9 months ago

I think it's enough to rip VOD's. But to be honest, it's been a coupüle of years since i last saw something like a XXX DVD or BD 😅

 

🏴‍☠️ AHOY and welcome to the state of global piracy for January 2024! ARRR! 🏴‍☠️

Please let me know if you have ideas about interesting stats, I'll see if I can make it happen.

Enjoy the numbers!

ACCUMULATED RELEASE SIZE FOR JANUARY 2024

From the 54.960 scene releases, only 9.420 of them had file + size information.

They total to: 16.61 TB (16.619.701 MB) in 115 thousand files (115.373).

No idea about the size of the missing information, so the real value should be much higher.

🏴‍☠️ AHOY fellow pirates and happy new pirate year to all! ARRR! 🏴‍☠️

Welcome to the first edition of yearly scene releases stats for 2023. I've already posted this to the piracy subreddit and now here.

Are you guys interested in these kind of stats? I already provide some other (game related) reddit communitites with stats and thought it could be also interesting for more general statistics about all piracy sections. Please let me know if you have ideas about interesting stats, I'll see if I can make it happen.

Enjoy the numbers!


TOTAL SCENE RELEASES BY SECTION

I have a total of 77 sections in my PreDB. The sections in here are combined for a better overview. Numbers in brackets show the change to the values relative to the previous year.

Total: 697.070 scene releases in 2023

So, biggest increases to 2022 would be FLAC music releases, EBOOK's, ANiME, GAMES (PC) and MOViES (HD). Huge losses on ABOOK's, BOOKWARE and TV (SD). The APPS section may be faulty for 2022, have to check the data.
