The World’s Oldest Active Torrent Turns 20 Years Old::undefined
Not legal pressure, government pressure. They kept getting asked to disclose which accounts had which ports associated with then and share all the info on them they kept (which for some payment methods they do briefly). So they decided to remove the feature rather than potentially violate their founding principle of privacy and anonymity. Kudos to them. Of course f*ck the CSAM assholes who made the government get involved in this and cost us this feature.
That is very depressing. The arms race between bad actors and repressive governments keeps whittling away at our right to privacy
