Whe know that MPAA, RIAA and several anti-piracy organizations are constantly trying to trap people into downloading fake torrents.
These torrents are hosted on trackers that are setup to collect IP addresses of all the ‘pirates’ who try to download these files.
To help torrents sphere, Fenopy just introduced the FakeFinder.
The FakeFinder lists the most popular fake torrents and the latest fake trackers. It also allows you to search for fake torrents by keyword or infohash.
The actual .torrent links for these fake files are blocked, and FakeFinder serves an informational purpose only.
It is actually quite amusing to browse through these fake files and trackers with some interesting hostnames like “dirtydevils.cyberbox.com.br” and “bittorrent.isthebe.st“.
FakeFinder shows that BitTorrent site admins are trying to track down these fake torrents, and it’s a nice way to expose the darker side of anti-piracy organizations like the MPAA.
