kiwipeso is referring to functionality in his project, stormcloud, for which he has created a thread here

This thread is about techtac's project, OfflineBay (which neither claims not aims to provide any moderation, centralized or decentralized)

Anybody willing to run a mirror for TPB dumps? It should always be updated to the latest one. It will help OB a lot. Unfortunately i can't do this. Leave a response to this thread if you're willing to do this. I'll link the mirror to this thread and YouTube video. Also maybe in the next update if the endpoint is stable.  Shy
If you are going to rely on third parties to host what is an easy file to tamper with (by, say, injecting hash values of fake/infected torrents) then you must download and hash each TPB file yourself, and store those hash values in a location you control, so that once a dump file has been downloaded the client can verify that it does not contain any extra entries.

Completely agree. Didn't think about that before. Hash verification should be done.

That is difficult to do with the current bittorrent protocol.
It has nothing to do with the bittorrent protocol.

TPB's dump files are only available via the HTTP protocol.

are you saying that your dump files doesn't contain fakes? because it does
here's an example
and you can check it on TPB and it doesn't download
if you don't believe me then check the trackers
they don't match with yts trackers

I think a rare occurrence like this is possible because there could be a lot of torrents uploaded around the time dump file was created which are not moderated. Look at the time stamp.
And just because something is thought to be OK last year does not mean its OK today.....................
You know away to deal with fakes uploads is to only work with trusted release groups only like yify, eztv, rarbg, ...ect. If you just dump all these sites on this application. You will get a shit ton of fakes with viruses maybe. I think that would a smart move to offer this in the future. It would give people like me side of relief that anything they download isn't going to have a virus.
