Why do people still host their stuff on github if they know its illegal?
It's probably against the rules.
Do what you want cause a pirate is free, you are a pirate.
Hi, newbie question. What is this download/share format called, and how do I access it?
Edit: I love all of you.
It’s a base64 encoded URL. You can usually recognize base64 by the two equals signs at the end. Just do a google search for a base64 decoder, and paste that text into it. You’ll get a usable link. (Technically you can decode them directly on your computer, but I don’t feel like walking you through the console commands for that…)
The base64 encoding is mostly to prevent bots from automatically issuing takedowns on piracy-related discussions. Because there’s the plausible deniability of “well we weren’t posting links.”

It's a torrent file. You need a torrent client to download it.
I thought you said they're back up, and got excited for a sec.
