What makes y'all torrent instead of DDL? I read in the megathread that DDL is less likely to get you caught, but a lot of people on here seem to really enjoy torrenting and I must be completely clueless as to why. I'd like to have your insights

Torrenting makes me a part of a decentralized archive of all the linux iso's i find beautiful, which i think is cool, and increases total access.

Thats why they go after it. It's kinda like torrenting is just tye first target, because it's so democratized. If it falls, direct downloads are next, and they're much less resilient.
