    Holy shit, this company is based in France and they’re publicly doxxing their users in the replies.

    I don’t even know what to say, under GDPR they’re extra fucked now.

      Because they’ve been so keen on being law-abiding do-gooders this whole time, right.

        I mean they should be aware that criminal charges stack up right? They’re not going to get anything good from making their own situation worse by doxxing customers (multiple comments on their profile giving out the email addresses of their customers). That isn’t going to help them and is just going to make it so much worse for them.

          I have to imagine that the person or people behind Real Debrid are quite likely slightly delusional. You kinda have to be if you want to start up a piracy business. People who set up these sorts of operations generally go through life under the impression that they’re invincible, that they’ll never get caught, that whatever legal loophole they’ve devised using SovCit logic is going to save them, etc. I very much doubt he cares about stacking up charges, because in his mind he’ll never face them.

    When I looked into real debrid years ago I noped out of it real quick after seeing the payment methods and info demanded that made it difficult to try to make the process as anonymous as possible.

      Yeah I’d say you dodged a bullet there. I always thought the amount of praise they received was unnatural and suspicious and like they would potentially use people’s information against them since they are crooks after all. I’m glad to see I was right about that, and I don’t feel bad that I didn’t sign up for RealDebrid when everyone was hoping on the hype train for it.
