Real-Debrid Traffic Falls 16% in 3 Months, Anti-Piracy Action Painful But Non-Fatal * TorrentFreak
torrentfreak.com
Almost three months after Real-Debrid announced new anti-piracy measures, the service isn't dead but appears to have lost 16% of its traffic.

At least on paper, Real-Debrid’s November 2024 announcement detailing new anti-piracy measures, suggested a tough time ahead for the popular platform. Under pressure from dozens of powerful rightsholders, Real-Debrid’s position looked precarious to put it mildly; not precarious enough for the service to throw in the towel, however. Three months later, a 16% drop in traffic is painful but non-fatal.

    I think the Stremio + RD combo made piracy too easy and lots of users newer to piracy panicked when they saw the announcement and started asking for refunds and alternatives before anything even happened. I also started using RD a short while before the announcement and there has been no change for me at all, everything still works like when I first started using it.
