Creating torrents for the purpose of making a statement through their names

Came across a collection of torrents dedicated to shitting on Mullvad VPN



This is some cyberpunk shit right here
Haven't come across a case like this before with torrents

While I like it I hope this sorta thing doesn't trend
Bloating my search results

Edit: Forgot to mention, each torrent has some file images presumably providing proof backing up the statement

I know some of it is true. They have removed port forwarding ( https://torrentfreak.com/best-vpn-anonymous-no-logging/#mullvad ) and they also partner with firefox ( https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1350032 ), and firefox gets 90% of their money from google ( https://www.androidheadlines.com/2020/08/mozilla-firefox-google-search ), and that's not the only google thing they've got going:

Firefox is using google Web Extensions: https://archive.ph/odk9n

Firefox is using google Web RTC: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebRTC

Firefox is using google Web Components: https://archive.ph/3zDI5

Firefox is using google GeoLocation Services API: https://archive.ph/pdS87

Firefox is using google Skia graphics engine: https://archive.ph/kqYWs

Firefox is using google Widewine: https://archive.ph/RtCSO

Firefox is using google Safe Browsing: https://archive.ph/nPaeN

Firefox is using google RegEx: https://archive.ph/lt9T7

Firefox is using google Analytics: https://archive.ph/r6Hj6


Besides, vanilla Firefox doesn't care about privacy at all ( https://www.kuketz-blog.de/mozilla-firefox-datensendeverhalten-desktop-version-browser-check-teil20/ ) not to mention pocket, mr robot, remotely disabling extensions, "fake news/reviews Fakespot ( https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/202...cammer-spotting-service-fakespot-for-firefox/ ), etc, and they're politically active ( deplatforming, etc: https://archive.is/nd1Ms ).
