For years, folks have been depending on Torrentz.eu, be it for media unreleased/unavailable in their country, or to download Linux distros, or plain old piracy. Torrentz was a free, fast and powerful meta-search engine combining results from dozens of search engines. It aggregated results form other torrent sites and gave you the optimum results with maximum trackers.
Yesterday, without any prior notice or warning the website has quietly shut down. Many users have been baffled and confused by the somber notification that the website gave when they went there in search of the latest House Of Cards or Game Of Thrones Episode. Some even went there looking for Inside and Abzu, but Denuvo is protecting those games you filthy pirates!
This news comes at the heels of Kickass Torrents being shut down a few weeks ago after the Us government arrested the owner. Since then torrenting has been on the decline, and the shutting down of Torrentz.eu is a clear sign that soon piracy will be even riskier and harder to get away with.
Started in 2003, Torrentz had been around for almost 13 years. You will be missed. Not by me though, only pirates. I’m fully legit.
