Thats how the game is meant to be played. I respect it, when I see people do this, I leave them be.

The real issue is money. How much and how (un)distributed.

Why is it fair/ok that one company can use all this material and make a lot of money off it without paying or even acknowledging others work?

On the flip side AI model could be useful. Maybe the models/weights should be made free just like the content they are trained on. Instead of paying for the model, we should pay for the hosting of the inference (aka. the API)

Is this tracker a known/reputable tracker? What content does it trade in? (movies/series?)

This is a good idea and a good practice in my opinion. Some malicious code detects when it’s being sandboxed and hides itself until it’s running somewhere it can do damage though.

This looks ideal! However, I haven’t managed to get the /site endpoint to return a my_user value. Even if I provide authentication:

{
    "auth": "<token>"
}

I’ve read they have a free tier withs ads. Apparently it makes more money peruser too…
