About

This site is an index of resources related to the warez scene, file-sharing, piracy research, freedom of information, and related tools. Links are categorized, deduplicated, and search-indexed for fast lookup.

Disclaimer

The maintainers do not host, distribute, or endorse pirated content. This is a reference index for research, education, and freedom-of-information purposes. We are not responsible for the content of external sites. If you object to a link, contact the destination site's owner or file a DMCA request with their host.

Why this exists

• Research and education on file-sharing ecosystems.
• Freedom of information — access to legal documents, academic papers, and out-of-print media.
• A reliable, curated alternative to scattered or malware-laden lists.

How it's built

Pure static HTML. No frameworks, no trackers, no ads. Fuse.js is vendored for in-browser fuzzy search. Dark/light theme uses CSS custom properties and a small inline boot script to avoid flash-of-wrong-theme.

Source data lives in data/links.json; pages are regenerated by scripts/render.py.

How often is it updated?

Monthly link health checks run via GitHub Actions. Dead links are removed automatically. Manual edits to the JSON are merged via pull request.
