If piracy is moral and ethical and enables us to share knowledge, why do private trackers gatekeep this knowledge? It goes against the principles of piracy. Do they do it just to feel superior about bring in a sekrit club?

I dunno, my torrents are never corrupted or missing either abd download full speed for free. I see everything I want minutes after it airs, with FileBot sutomatically sorting everything for free all I need to do is open Kodi on my AndroidTV and select what I want to watch...

I see no need or afvantage of changing that to anything that costs me money to get the exact same result... 🤷‍♂️

I think it's just peopke that did pay justifying themselves to themselves after the fact. There is no real advantage at all...
