This is a torrent file, which means you will need a torrent client to
|
||||
download it. Here are some good torrent clients for various platforms:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li><a href="https://transmissionbt.com/download">Transmission</a> (Linux, Mac, Windows)</li>
|
||||
<li><a href="https://www.qbittorrent.org/download">qBittorrent</a> (Linux, Mac, Windows)</li>
|
||||
<li><a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.proninyaroslav.libretorrent">LibreTorrent</a> (Android)</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
After installing your torrent client you will be able to use the
|
||||
<a href={magnet}><Magnet/> Open magnet link</a>
|
||||
button to download the files in your torrent client.

<h3>What is a torrent?</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
<a href="https://wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent">BitTorrent</a> is a
|
||||
peer-to-peer network for sharing files. This torrent file does not
|
||||
actually contain the files listed below, instead it contains
|
||||
instructions for your torrent client to download the files from
|
||||
other people who happen to be downloading the same files currently.
|
||||
This means that instead of connecting to a single server (like
|
||||
pixeldrain), you will be connecting to other people on the internet
|
||||
to download these files.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Torrents are a highly efficient and free method of transferring
|
||||
files over the internet. Since the bandwidth is shared directly
|
||||
between users there is no need for expensive servers to host the
|
||||
files for you.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<h3>Is this safe?</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Your torrent client will make sure that the files you receive from
|
||||
your peers are actually what they say it is. This makes it just as
|
||||
safe as any other form of downloading. Like always when downloading
|
||||
files you still need to be aware of what you are downloading. Don't
|
||||
just blindly trust any file anyone sends you.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<h3>Is it private?</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
When downloading a torrent file you will be part of the so-called
|
||||
'torrent swarm'. Anyone in the swarm can see each other's IP
|
||||
addresses. This is not a bad thing on its own, but there a few cases
|
||||
in which this can be abused.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Anyone in the swarm will be able to see what you are downloading,
|
||||
even across different torrents. This is something to keep in mind
|
||||
when downloading torrents. If someone can link your IP address to
|
||||
your identity then there are ways to find out which files you have
|
||||
downloaded in the past (provided that your IP address has not
|
||||
changed since then).
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
If you are downloading copyrighted material (which I do not condone)
|
||||
then rightsholders will be able to see your IP address. In most
|
||||
cases this is not a problem because your ISP will still protect your
|
||||
identity. But there are some countries (notably the USA) where your
|
||||
ISP will not respect your right to privacy and the rightsholder will
|
||||
be able to contact you. If this worries you then you should look
|
||||
into VPN services to protect your privacy, like <a
