Real-Debrid, a popular streaming and download service, says it’s implementing far-reaching anti-piracy measures, including hash and keyword filters, in response to a notice from the French Federation of Film Distributors. The API and instantAvailability feature are set for deactivation too, while content from “notorious” pirate sites will be blocked.

    I still have 2 months left on my account. I’ll wait and see what happens in the next few weeks.

        Indeed. It already disappeared. Oh, well, subbed AD for a month, now. Let’s see how long it lasts.

      Yeah I’m curious if cocoscrapers with the torrent search enabled will make this a non issue… But the website scraper was kinda great to have. I’m a bit shocked but honestly am surprised we haven’t heard more scrutiny on them …

      Edit - or is it time to start paying for orionoid

          So i find it a great search engine and supplement, but the free version was always sufficient. This might change things… might… it’s hard to know what’s going to happen… but the API thing is huge.
