It is a sad day and year for Piracy. Soap2Day was the best of the best. So was RARBG.

Why are all these piracy sites dropping like flies? There was no warning/explanation for why they went down. Higher running/maintenance cost doesn't explain it, because why not just temporarily shut down until the bills come down? Plus, the timing is bang in the middle of the reddit protest too, which is setting my conspiracy alarms off.

For not so smart people like me- can someone explain how/what role AI plays in all of this?

AI can search multiple things at the same time really fast. It can also detect patterns super quick. It probably is doing something like looking for multiple users accessing high bandwidth or something. I dunno. This might not even be happening. Just a guess 😆
