| This can be used for amusement, but is in no way reliable to know what you (or anyone else) downloads. It could possibly act as a starting point to track what someone is downloading/seeding when used with other mechanisms. > How we collect data > Our system collects torrent files in two ways: parsing torrent sites and listening DHT network. We have more than 1.500.000 torrents which where classified and which are using now for collecting peer sharing facts (up to 200.000.000 daily). We don't guarantee we can show ALL peer sharing facts: > Single IP address could be assigned to multiple users. It depends on user's ISP. For example mobile operators often used this schema. Self-explanatory, but this could also be the case for home broadband where CGNAT is used. This means your public torrent downloads (or even if you don’t have any downloads) will be seen along with many others’ downloads as a single list. > IP address could be dynamic. In such case it changes every time user connects to the Internet or periodically. Again, self-explanatory. Unless one obtains and uses a static addresses (not the default for most home connections), what you see here could be somewhat similar to the previous point. > User could download torrent which we don't have Aka private trackers and torrents, which is what many people who know how to torrent and do it regularly would drift towards. The torrent files from private trackers set a “private” flag that makes the torrent client disable features like DHT (distributed hash table) and PEX (peer exchange) for those torrents. So unless you have a working account on the tracker and join a swarm, you cannot find out about other peers from public sources. |
