uTorrent. Not even once.

What's the motivation for these """"hackers""""?

Just being niggers or what?

Why am I not surprised? They use Adobe Flash Slayer in their client. Probably the QA guy got hacked because of an "update your flash player" popup.

>((((hackers))))

>doublefag

Good.

Fuck piratefags.

Who cares, this has nothing to do with the program.

The program itself is a steaming pile of horseshit as well, yeah, I'd say it has everything to do with it.

>for sale
I wonder what their motivation could be.
Are you stupid?

...mebbe

I don't get it

What could possibly be so valuable in forum accounts? Hacking a forum for useless data is one thing, but who the fuck would actually buy it?

>look mom, I bought this pack of 395 thousand accounts for 10 bitcoin!!!
>nice, son, what do you get from it
>uh... um... cool nicknames and some email addresses!
>good job son, that was totally worth 7000 USD!

>395,000

This a small or large number? I thought there would be millions of normies using utorrent.

I don't think that the target audience is children living in their mothers basement.

>forum accounts

Wow... who would've thought.

Not you, judging by your post.
Why so agitated?

It really is µTorrent, or muTorrent, not uTorrent.

guess those people won't have netflix accounts to resell

People reuse passwords, a lot.

Most people use the same passwords and usernames/emails. Plus, ~90% of all user passwords sampled all appear on the list of just the top 10,000

Owning the emails & hashes of a popular forum is only a few steps away from a controlling bank account.

>Forum Accounts

And nothing of value was lost

>uTorrent Forum Account

w...why?

>forum accounts

LOL at uTorrent plebs getting BTFO

>Most people use the same passwords and usernames/emails

Especially uTorrent users - they cannot into technology.

>s only a few steps away
literally not

only a few steps away from a controlling bank account.
>Literally not

Email Address & Weak Hash -> Email + Password -> (Email account ->)* Bank account

*Optional, needed only if 2-factor authentication is used by the bank.

>forum accounts

>2 factor authentication is optional
name one fucking bank

hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Transmission bitches.

>no features

TD Bank

I just login with a username/password, only e-mail verification is needed.

I would not use a bank that requires me to have a cell-phone, especially if t requires the use of proprietary software on a smartphone.

>download shit
>disable all seeding
All the features I need.
