Yesterday there was a controversial movie torrent that was getting 1000s of downloads and was on the “popular this week” page, and today it’s just gone. I went to the uploader’s account page and it’s not there either. Just like it never existed.

I’m SUPER curious of the story behind what happened. Did the uploader take it down? 1337? Why?

EDIT: The movie was Lady Ballers 2023 (wasn’t sure if I was allowed to say) I did a little more research, and I think the copy the uploader put out was YTS but I don’t think they were affiliated with them. Maybe YTS told them to take it down? The movie is on their (YTS/YIFY’s) website.

    Removing hate-speech is not censorship any more than removing CSAM is censorship. It’s just being responsible.

        Lol, 10s on your profile says exactly why you think this way. Good luck getting through life so full of hate.

            Bold claim to make from one comment. But then again, I shouldn’t expect any less from someone with your post history…
