    I know what dns poisoning is but it usually happens on so called legit sites. Pirate sites serve you malware out of the box.

      If you would stop clicking on the ‘hot, horny single women in your area’ banners you wouldn’t have to worry about it

        There is this torrent site I use that likes to use javascript to redirect to various malicious websites on every single click. After reaching the desired amount of clicks, it start behaving like a normal, “legit” website. Just of out curiosity I checked few other torrent websites and got the same result. It got so annoying that I’m using radarr and sonarr to look for torrents.

          Hey everybody, this guy uses a shitty fucking site and thinks all piracy sites are bad! Definitely not confirmation bias with a tinge of ignorance
