Friday, March 4th, 2011There is some fuzz about our tracker in the recent days. Some people claim that the Chaos Computer Club started a tracker which, in their terms, is the successor of denis.stalker.h3q.com. And they all got it so wrong. First of all, the Chaos Computer Club is running their own BitTorrent trackers for a really long [...]

News from PeerGuardian and Bluetack
Monday, September 24th, 2007Fakhir (Phoenixlabs staff member) pointed out that: PhoenixLabs (PeerGuardian publishers) don’t publish or have any control over what is or is not included in the IP lists. So its not PeerGuardians fault, they just use the blacklist of bluetack. So bluetack compiles the blocklist and everyone else just trusts them blindly, thanks for pointing that [...]
torrenty.org update
Saturday, January 27th, 2007We don’t know if the torrenty.org people read this blog or got word through other channels, because our mail to them bounced, but they stopped using our tracker! Anyway, we appreciate this decision! We wish them the best with their own tracker and thanks for all the phish!
