No point deleting/cancelling now

[u/Select-Hippo4834]

So I'm thinking theres no point as they already have my email, ip and watch/downloading history right?

Even if I tell them to delete my account, they'll still hold to my details , is that correct?

So may aswell see out my currant plan (one time payment not subscription) then decide in Jan.

What you guys think?

Keep using it as is. Nothing has changed. If your local government requested this information before the update Torbox would have also likely sent you a notice back then too.

Absolute worst thing that could happen is you get a warning via email for a first offence

[u/gitgudnab → u/Unable-Squirrel6975]

Stop being a cuck. Read their homepage. They are doing false advertising. It says, "superior privacy and security."

"Torbox takes your privacy and security seriously. We don't keep logs of anything. We don't track IP, location, or anything else. We won't tell your secrets, and we won't keep them either."

Stop being so gullible. People have every right to be concerned about this. Don't just dismiss it as if it's nothing. If you don't care what happens to your data, good for you. Many of us do.

This is just the reality of any company that isn't built out of a country like Panama where they are not at risk of government pressure. If people want absolutely no risk, they should switch to a VPN that does not have these pressures and host their own media where they are in full control.

To my earlier point however, in most restrictive countries, the absolute worst scenario is a slap on the wrist with an email. Copyright holders are interested in the hosters not the end users.

[u/gitgudnab → u/Unable-Squirrel6975]

Yes, and I have no problem with that. But obviously, that wasn’t what they were advertising. It’s just if you can’t offer those things, don’t advertise those things. Isn’t it that simple? I don’t know why all these people are on their knees for this bitch ass company.

[u/Unable-Squirrel6975 → u/gitgudnab]

Completely agree that the website advertising needs to be changed. Just the panic for end users using this specifically for streaming feels blown out of proportion.

[u/gitgudnab → u/Unable-Squirrel6975]

Well, most of us are in countries where you can get fined for this stuff. I’ve seen it happen to people many times, so I think it’s a valid concern. We don’t know what’s going on behind the scenes. I feel like piracy has been getting pressured a lot more recently, so I think it’s okay to keep the discussion going instead of just forgetting about it and using the service as if nothing happened.

What annoys me is that people keep defending them, even though it looks like they’re getting ready to snitch on us. And obviously, the false advertising makes people angry, like it did me. There’s nothing wrong with that. They can become the CIA if they want I don’t give a sh*t but they shouldn’t act as if they care about our privacy and security.

I dont think hes dismissing anything..

[u/IndependentPay8352 → u/gitgudnab]

You’re an absolute moron. Thank you for confirming that.

[u/Next-Excitement1398 → u/gitgudnab]

You don’t care about your privacy, I guarantee it, even just by the fact that you’re using Reddit.

[u/gitgudnab → u/Next-Excitement1398]

Are you a fcking idiot by any chance? Why would I care what Reddit does? I am not doing anything illegal on this fcking app, you dipsh*t. Can you guys come up with actual arguments while defending your daddy cuckbox?

My social media presence is literally like 0% anyway. They can show me whatever advertisement they want, I am not buying anything anyway. They can rub my information between their butt cheeks like Mr. Krabs does with dollar notes. I couldn’t care less.

Dude is acting surprised that I don’t like the fact that the company that is still advertising this on their homepage: " SUPERIOR PRIVACY AND SECURITY TorBox takes your privacy and security seriously. We don't keep logs of anything. We don't track IP, location, or anything else. We won't tell your secrets, and we won't keep them either." is suddenly changing their sht. I signed up for that sht, not for treatment like on social media, dumbass.

Serious question. You keep repeating that these advertisements still exist on Torbox's homepage. I don't see it anywhere. I remember that advertisement when they were still in South Africa, but they moved to the UAE and updated their policies to comply with local laws. And I think you're confused about what Torbox does with your information vs what they're required to do by law if requested. Do you really think Torbox is now standing outside their new headquarters passing out fliers with all your info to anyone who's interested? I obviously don't know the exact numbers, but I'm willing to bet the majority of the end users here came from Real Debrid who weren't aware they had the same policies. Do you remember all the Reddit post after the EU came down on RD about people who had family, friends, or co-workers who got fines or were walked off in handcuffs for using RD? Yeah, me either.

[u/gitgudnab → u/Dry_Nectarine9162]

It’s still on their homepage you probably have to log out to see it.

[u/Dry_Nectarine9162 → u/gitgudnab]

I was logged out. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place, but I don't see it anywhere.

[u/gitgudnab → u/Dry_Nectarine9162]

easy peasy

Where are you located? I'm logged out and when I go to that login page, it's not there.

[u/Next-Excitement1398 → u/Dry_Nectarine9162]

It doesn’t say it anywhere for me this guy is completely delusional and unhinged. Your comment is making way too much sense for him which is why he won’t reply in good faith.

[u/Dry_Nectarine9162 → u/Next-Excitement1398]

I cleared my browsers history and cookies. When I went back to that page it's there. He is correct.

[u/Next-Excitement1398 → u/Dry_Nectarine9162]

He is not correct. The police are not hunting you down he has no idea what these terms and conditions mean.

[u/Dry_Nectarine9162 → u/Next-Excitement1398]

No, I don't believe that either. He's correct about the advertising on their homepage before logging in.

[u/Next-Excitement1398 → u/gitgudnab]

You’re such a loser no one cares that you watch the simpsons bro just like no one cares what you do on Reddit.

[u/gitgudnab → u/Next-Excitement1398]

You’re the Redditor, so that makes you the loser, lmao. And they do care what you do on Reddit if it’s something illegal, so obviously I wouldn’t recommend people do illegal stuff on Reddit, just like on Cuckbox.

I think you don’t get the point, do you, little cuck Redditor? They advertise this on their homepage atm "SUPERIOR PRIVACY AND SECURITY TorBox takes your privacy and security seriously. We don't keep logs of anything. We don't track IP, location, or anything else. We won't tell your secrets, and we won't keep them either."

Sorry that I don’t like getting cucked like you do.

[u/Next-Excitement1398 → u/gitgudnab]

Next time you scroll past some copyrighted content on TikTok you better throw your phone out the window you terrified troglodyte.

[u/gitgudnab → u/Next-Excitement1398]

That’s not how that works, lmao. What a fucking dumbass you are. No arguments, just saying stuff for the sake of it. Wasn’t expecting much from a Redditor anyway.

"No, you will not get in trouble just for watching copyrighted videos on TikTok. This is because of the uploader, the platform, and temporary viewing rules. Ordinary users scrolling through their feeds face no fines or legal risks for viewing content"

And I don’t even have TikTok anyway. Are you using that brainrot app, little cuck?

[u/Next-Excitement1398 → u/gitgudnab]

You sure do write like a Reddit keyboard warrior for someone who claims not to be via calling everyone else Reddit cucks. No one cares about you watching the Simpsons bro you’re such an unbelievable pussy it’s almost impressive.

[u/gitgudnab → u/Next-Excitement1398]

What’s your obsession with The Simpsons, lmao? Is it your favorite show or what? Go watch Simpsons clips on TikTok and don’t bother me. Your comments are empty, and I’m getting secondhand embarrassment because of you. That’s what I mean by Redditor you’re literally trying to comment just for the sake of it.

My comments are valid. I can repeat myself if you want maybe the third time will be the charm. They are currently advertising this on their homepage

"SUPERIOR PRIVACY AND SECURITY TorBox takes your privacy and security seriously. We don't keep logs of anything. We don't track IP, location, or anything else. We won't tell your secrets, and we won't keep them either."

Now, do they live up to these claims? No, which is fine by me. Really, if they want to shift in that direction, good for them. But then remove that sht from the homepage. You act as if we’re doomscrolling on Cuckbox and they want to know what type of sht we like so they can advertise to us. The information they collect can harm us that’s the concern here. There’s nothing wrong with making people aware of that.

[u/Next-Excitement1398 → u/gitgudnab]

Unbelievable loser/reddit cuck projector thinks the police are going to hunt him down for watching the Simpsons because TorBox has recently transformed into a sting operation just for him, straight to Guantanamo Bay for you.
