Submission + - Torrent Giant YTS Returns to .LT Domain After .MX "Vanishes" (torrentfreak.com)
cristiroma writes: After five years of operating in relatively stable waters, popular torrent site YTS is on the move again. The site’s Mexican domain name, YTS.mx, suddenly stopped resolving yesterday and has effectively vanished. While the official reason remains unclear, the YTS operators decided to return to one of their previous homes, YTS.lt.
With millions of regular users, YTS is arguably the most visited torrent site on the internet today.
The current operators ‘unofficially’ took over the YTS brand in 2015 after the original group threw in the towel. Since then, it has amassed a rather impressive user base.
After adopting one of the most iconic piracy brands, YTS faced its fair share of legal troubles. In 2019, the popular torrent site and its operator were accused of mass copyright infringement in multiple lawsuits filed by filmmakers in the United States. Surprisingly, YTS managed to settle these lawsuits to live another day, although that came at a price.
YTS also dealt with various domain name challenges. When the site first entered the scene, it was operating from the YTS.ag domain name, which it traded in for YTS.am a few years later. In 2019, the torrent site moved to YTS.lt, which it swapped for the YTS.mx domain in 2020.
Legal Pressure?
While it is apparent that the .MX domain name issues are serious, it is not immediately clear what caused them. TorrentFreak asked Registry .MX for a comment on the situation, but the organization did not immediately respond.

ISSEY MIYAKE and Apple today unveiled iPhone Pocket. Inspired by the concept of “a piece of cloth,” its singular 3D-knitted construction is designed to fit any iPhone as well as all pocketable items.
When stretched, the open textile subtly reveals its contents and allows users to peek at their iPhone display. iPhone Pocket can be worn in a variety of ways — handheld, tied onto bags, or worn directly on the body. Featuring a playful colour palette, the short strap design is available in eight colours, and the long strap design in three colours.

A properly cared Transporter VW van will easily get you 800.000 km no problem. And the best part? You get spare parts within the week. Any dealership in Europe.
I own a 25 years old BMW 316i and the m43 engine is bullet proof. Properly cared? No rust
So stop spreading fud and go to your chinese friends, get your p7 and let's talk in 15 years

Too many distraction, ~40 years ago people threw money on things like drink, smoke, women etc. But nowadays everything is so distracting, difficult to keep a straight bearing. Everyone and everywhere wants a piece of your wallet.
One thing is clear - education and its ecosystem is going down in flames. And probably this is a proof of that.

Your opinion is quite normal. What bose does here is a shitty marketing shitty called planned obsolescence.
People should educate themselves to find workarounds. You can buy a pair of 40 years Technics speakers for 100 bucks on ebay, hook them to a raspberry pi and link to your home media server. Spend some time and learn something in the process. You get for 150$ something bose is selling for 1000+ and get rid of the monthly spotify subscription. Listen whatever you want whenever you want, wherever you are. On your phone, home speakers etc.
