"Get this.." redirect

[jwjetpilot]

Greetings all!  Something changed with recent system updates.  Now, when I click the "Get this torrent" link, instead of opening my BitTorrent program, a new page opens and invites me to follow another link that looks suspicious as hell.  Close the page and try magain to get redircted to another suspicious malicious looking option.  

Thought it might be Edge or Chrome so I put in TOR browser.  No change in the response to my attemtps to "get the torrent"

Something like this happening to others here?

Are you using the original pirate bay website or one of the pirate bay proxies? A lot of mirror sites insert additional ads onto the site. And some might go so far as to try to trick you with a fake link.

Prefer using the real https://thepiratebay.org/ or going to the real onion site for TPB http://piratebayo3klnzokct3wt5yyxb2vpebb...oid.onion/ in Tor Browser.

It works the same.  Today, the redirect offers me a firefox extension.  Same result with different search results.  

Something is up with my connection, computer or something.
