Just noticed that both 1337x and TorrentGalaxy mark IGGGAMES as a "trusted uploader" (lemmy.sdf.org)

But I remember seeing that group being blacklisted and called out in multiple Piracy communities and wikis a few years ago.

What happened? Are they good now?

i was told 1337x refused to take down torrents that contained crypto miners, which is why it's not a truly trusted source anymore. it should be fine for video and music, but I'm not downloading video games or anything that might contain an executable.
