Just a lvl 28 guy from Finland. Full-stack web developer and Scrum Master by trade, but more into server-side programming, networking, and sysadmin stuff.
During the summer, I love trekking, camping, and going on long hiking adventures. Also somewhat of an avgeek and a huge Lego fanatic.

What if a bad actor acquires one of these once popular tracker domains? Could they somehow take advantage of it? For example, what if they make the tracker advertise a large number of “fake” peers that serve malware instead of the actual files? I only have a crude understanding of how BitTorrent works, so I’m not sure what kinds of protections, if any, it has against this type of attack.
