1337x.to is generally fine to use, just be sure to check the notes on the Megathread and use your common sense.
Context
When signing up on the 1337x platform, it’s crucial to bear in mind that it’s accessible to all users.
The act of downloading movies and TV shows is often regarded as safe. This is primarily because these files do not come in .exe format, thus reducing the likelihood of virus infection.
Risk
It’s highly advisable to be careful when downloading games and software from the site unless you have total confidence in the uploader’s trustworthiness. Avoid uploaders like IGGGames due to their notorious track record of distributing malware.
Opt for reputable uploaders like DODI Repacks, FitGirl Repacks, and KaOsKrew to ensure reliable content and mitigate any potential risks associated with unverified sources.
What I’m referring to is the Baldur’s Gate 3 fiasco. I don’t know how things panned out, but people were turning away from it at the time. Admins were aware/involved as far as I know remember.
As far as I can recall, EMPRESS called them out for linking malware to her crack releases. Please someone correct me about its details as I don’t fully remember it.
Edit: Looked it up, there was a torrent with a bitcoin miner injected that 1337 mods appearently didnt remove which caused the whole ordeal.
Commenting so I can follow thread, I have been using 1337 for a good few years and has no idea it got into the bad books.
