RARBG shutting down left a huge hole for me and I can’t figure out what’s a good alternative for it other than 1337. Any suggestions?

The Bay never went away. It's always been there for you and it will always be there for you.

Much like international waters, its always required a bit of watching out for your own well being.

Correct! Is that particularly important?

For variety of reasons. First, if an uploader sends a file that is malicious, it can't be taken down since it is not moderated. Second, I could create a torrent for "Oppenheimer" and name the file as the same with proper meta data but upload a fake one. It can't be removed since there is no moderated. Also, the chances of people uploading "bad" content are high too, though I don't know whether people do that though.
