    a lot of the people making these posts don’t realise they are going to fake clone sites with a lesser library that could even be potentially dangerous. even outside of this space people are fooling themselves, I saw someone on discord post a fake 9anime link yesterday.

      If you’re watching the things you want to watch, the “That’s not the right site so it doesn’t count!” argument doesn’t make much sense.

      There’s no such thing as “fake” or “real” in this context.

        when the og dies the clone sites are fixed in time, eventually the things you want to watch will catch up and overtake that point.

        either way you’re on the wrong site because realheads use torrents

        It is, however, an issue if the website you’re watching your movie on is doing other things in the background; like using the HTTPS connection to rip info about your device
