In July we passed The famous torrent site Kickass Torrents suddenly stopped operating after the arrest of its alleged founder Artem Vaulin. But apparently not everything was lost…
A team of dedicated former members of the site started a reincarnation of the notorious torrent tracker in hopes of bringing him back to his old glamor.
The new Kickass Torrents has gone live and promises to be fully functional. The website looks identical to its predecessor, but starts with a clean base data in the users table.
But good news is that many of the original staff members are already back and tirelessly raising the content that made it famous.
"All the big uploaders are back and sharing tirelessly, before the torrent engines even start. The torrent community will see additions from all the names they know and trust, "said the KATcr team.
Let's say that after the initial closing of the famous website, a heap sprang up mirror sites, but they did not last long.
In addition to the mirrors whose goal was only to distribute content (let's not forget the ads), there were also some malicious ones that tried to steal personal information or even credit card credentials from novice hackers. The team behind the new website reports on the matter:
"To keep our members safe we chose to rebuild and keep only the safe data. Although it took us a long time to rebuild, the security of our community comes first. ”
