6 days agoUse uBlock Origin, you’re being redirected by ads. I tested downloading Icarus just now and this is where the links led to. gamebounty -> filecrypt -> datanodes. Datanodes started the download, ~30GiB 7zip file. I didn’t get any ads or redirects using Ublock Origin and a Firefox based browser.
I would suggest reading the very top of the megathread, the part that says" Not so fast sailor! Do this first"
2 accounts consistently reporting the same IP, location and user habits etc being linked is more absurd than nobody ever noticing excessive uploaded data from their phones? It is very easy to monitor the amount of uploaded and downloaded data on a device, lots of people would have noticed by now. The amount of storage, bandwidth and processing power that would be required to monitor the audio from hundreds of millions of android users globally 24/7 would make this the dumbest business decision ever when there are so many easier and efficient ways to track users.
