all i can say is this is a very sad news and of course FUCK YOU MPA!!!! and a special fuck to Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment, because they site stinks like cryptocurrency, fraud and corruption, I hope that one day hackers invade this site and can destroy it as much as they can as a form of revenge!

Without seeds, torrents become almost useless, and many pirate sites offer rare and hard-to-find movies/animes whose torrent versions never download because their seeds are practically extinct forever. So I don't think this is a weak complaint. If torrents didn't have this weakness I would always choose to use them but...

How far will they go in order to monopolize everything? I know we always have "spare heads" for sites that are victim to these bastards but I fear a possible future dystopia where piracy is almost scarce or extinct.

Any news like this always hurts as much as being hit by a truck, but the ones about anime sites being taken down are the ones that make me the saddest. I will always hate the monopoly that Crunchyroll has established and I'm afraid that one day it will "win" and that all the other sites will end up having the same fate. Why is piracy involving anime is the one that suffers the most?

Good for you but I'm of the opinion that public domain nowadays is a bad joke of the cursed capitalist world we live in, if I wait to see something modern "for free" I'll be 150 years old and I won't even be able to see Oppenheimer's film because of that stupid 95 year period of time... seriously, if the waiting period were 15/20 years I would make a genuine effort not to pirate but as I said above the public domain law is a joke and will continue to be...

It is and always will be, this is one of the few "modern phrases" that I never tire of hearing because it is still real and relevant today. But unfortunately, as long as megacorporations are whatever they are and people have this "capitalist" fear of piracy, things will not change and will only tend to get worse!

The research is from Duck Go Go as most people have already said but I appreciate your comment offending Google. More people should do this nowadays!

"It will also utilize image recognition to detect unauthorized use of manga and anime materials provided by publishers" If this somehow backfires and sites like CBR or TheGame fall victim to this, it will be very funny! but I hope this AI fails miserably!

Thank God we have torrents, but what makes me most sad about this is that many of these sites have unique catalogs that torrents don't have or that you can never get seeds from... being honest, I would 100% migrate to torrent if it didn't have this small big problem.

As I said in a previous post, people are afraid of pirating, so they prefer higher prices if it is a "safe" method.

Why can't I have confidence when they say they will try to make access "free"? I don't know why but this smells like something similar to what they do with "free games" on cell phones

Because they will always have people who support them, regardless of how mean they are, as long as there are people afraid of "pirating" this will never change.

if Elon or Zuckerberg were arrested for copyright issues it would be the only time in my entire life that the arrest was deserved for that reason, I dare say it would be the only good thing that DMCA has done in its entire life if that could happen

As people said, the site was "DMCA purged" and lost part of its gallery, which, unfortunately, makes it one of the worst manga sites to read online nowadays, which is a shame I always visited it, but now all that's left is just a hollow body of what it once was.

Video DownloadHelper?

Any and all sites that offer unique content that other pirated sites do not offer, such as unknown and unpopular animes/movies, every day they run the risk of being erased by the corrupt hands of the DMCA and unfortunately they may not have repositories for them due to their rare and unique gallery.

blame capitalism and big corporations, if there's one thing I've learned in this life it's that if you're rich you can do almost anything, "legal" or illegal, Just look at the amount of sh*ts Elon and Zuckerberg have made and gotten away with over the years.

DMCA taking down manga sites at a greater speed and with more ferocity than Anime, and even though Nyaa is great there are a lot of mangas that are not delivered in torrents and It's easier to find a torrent of a rare and unknown anime with at least 1 seed than of a manga.

hard to answer, I know a site called "redecanais" but it is not a torrent site. After doing a quick search I found these sites:
