It's a token measure against domestic law enforcement (a.k.a. lockdown mode).
Also, I made a thread about backing up and restoring tracker cookies in the Member area on July 2010, I'm such a visionary :smilie4:
I think China is strict on torrenting like US.
Russia may be better for Non- Russian content, especially in Ukraine war days.
2 mighty public trackers are from Russia.
Russia has an "Internet kill switch" system designed to stop all international traffic. If it were activated, tracker staff within the country would effectively be locked away from their sites and unable to do any moderation or maintenance work (as it happened in Egypt during the 2011 protests).Quote:

Some have asked me about this, so I'd like to point out there's no top secret magic trick exclusive to trackers and you can use any cookie manager addon for this task (but the specific method I shared doesn't require any).Quote:
