I was searching through the megathread (https://rentry.co/megathread) and I found that yts.mx and 1337x.to are labeled as 'fake clones'. I have used both of these several times

Are yts.mx and 1337x.to considered unsafe? I have them in my prowlarr and wondering if I should remove them

Edit: I was wrong 1337x is not labeled as a fake clone, I misread the fake clone which is 1377x

I use a seedbox to download the file from their site links for me, so I don’t see any of that anymore, so while I use their site I don’t directly interact with the torrent files or magnet links.

If the link is never exposed, how does your seedbox see it without an account? And are you x remote desktopping Firefox from your seedbox? i'm confused...
