>>1542037>Hi, I was wondering if The Pirate Bay is still safe to use in 2025. If not, what are some good alternatives that won’t risk giving me viruses or malware? ThanksIt never was, it always is a roll of the dice, just like any piracy, it requires understanding some level of cyber security techniques like running it in a vm, using things like virustotal and more to know for sure there isn't something inside you don't want.
And also depends what you are getting, REAL image, music and video files are typically safe. ROMs of games are also typically safe PDFs you should watch out and EXEs are a giant nope don't run that on bare metal.
