An Easy Way to Get Banned from Most Torrent Sites

In case for some of you it’s not yet clear how come there’s so much spam on torrent sites (in the form of bogus files, dubious videos with long catchy titles, and loads of e-books promising the perfect solutions to your bank account and your sex life), well, that’s what this post is all about.

The passionate file sharers know too well that the entertainment industry practices the spreading of fake files to discourage them. However, the entertainment industry accounts for a relatively small percent (for now) of these files – the larger percent of them come from spammy affiliate marketers and have pecuniary reasons behind. The big problem is that they're no longer placing their content only manually – more and more sophisticated tools are used to automatically submit the malicious content.

Such a program is exposed by p2p-blog under the name Torrent Blaster. Apparently its “credentials” are impressive. The Torrent Blaster website reads:

" After 6 months, I had been making over 70 dollars a day without having to work more than 10 minutes a week, uploading just one torrent a week."

At least it’s comforting to know that there’s an advanced technology out there doing a great job at detecting whether a human or a dumb application submits something to your site.

However, many of the heavy spammers cope with this by constant updates of their algorithms and trying to always be one step ahead of anti-spammers. So, where do apps such as the Torrent Blaster fit in this game? Nowhere around the winners, I tell you. If the prospect of spending 29 dollars on an application that may very well get you banned on any technologically decent torrent site out there and helping some jackass making an easy buck sounds good to you then…go ahead, make his day!
