The world of the scene and the piracy of original streaming content is reeling. After one of the most popular torrent download sites declared its closure, now comes another announcement of abandonment of one of the most important TV show ripping groups in recent years.
CAKES leaves
When a torrent file is shared over the network, its name includes, in addition to information about the download, the quality of the video file, and the source of the stream, the name of the ripping team behind the ripping work. extraction. In the world there are a large number of groups, but in recent years, everything related to television programs and series revolved around a team: CAKES.
Everything that CAKES shared on the networks accumulated many downloads, because the quality of their content and the speed with which they worked was the key to their success. But now, after almost 3 years of sharing content daily, the group has announced that it is leaving its activity forever.
Does piracy go off?
This dismissal letter clashes directly with the announcement of RARBG shutdown. What was once one of the reference websites for torrent downloads announced that it was canceling the project due to its economic infeasibility and the inability of the staff to run a site of such magnitude.
The networks were filled with questions, since the web supplied millions of users from all over the world, who came daily to download series files, high-quality movies and all kinds of content, where obviously, CAKES files were also found. .
Legal actions and popular prices
Piracy continues and will continue to exist, but it is true that things have changed a lot compared to how they worked a few years ago. Users have easier access to streaming services that are often quite affordable, and paying for content is now something completely normal that is part of the monthly expenses of many families.
On the other hand, the pressure from the authorities against this type of organization is getting stronger and more constant, which is why hacking groups are increasingly afraid of receiving fines and the possibility of ending up being arrested.
