This behavior is very concerning, especially since it’s not a one-off, their other replies on that account aren’t much better.
Holy shit, this company is based in France and they’re publicly doxxing their users in the replies.
I don’t even know what to say, under GDPR they’re extra fucked now.
Hopefully they will get what they deserve, at the very least get their Trustpilot banned and lose any and all appearance of being a good and not shady business it gives them. Because they are a shady and not legitimate business, they don’t act like one, and their service doesn’t have any practical usage that isn’t related to piracy. Seriously the legal usage of Debrid services is so niche that if that were all you could do with them we probably wouldn’t have them at all.
There response seems to imply they had no idea theyd been complicit in piracy, as if there was some other use for them.
They would like people to believe that there is some worthwhile usage because they don’t want to get shut down or end up bankrupt if people stop paying for the service. Which despite the amount of people trying to convince others its still working, is dwindling and will dwindle even more once they remove most of the torrents and block most copyrighted media.
I was on the subreddit for real-debrid and theres so many ppl praising them still and expecting the service to function like normal after removing their endpoint. Then ppl complaining because they cant add their pirated media, like wtf what did you expect they got busted. Theyre still there but the reason theyre still alive has been burned so, time to jump ship. Off to another place to get my files
The people on that subreddit are sad and pathetic shills, they kiss up to that company and attack anyone who criticizes them and deny the fact that it’s the end for them.
Then they complain that they can’t add their pirated content yet still insist that the service isn’t broken or that it’s still working fine.
Jfc, that trustpilot page is hilarious
When I looked into real debrid years ago I noped out of it real quick after seeing the payment methods and info demanded that made it difficult to try to make the process as anonymous as possible.
Yeah I’d say you dodged a bullet there. I always thought the amount of praise they received was unnatural and suspicious and like they would potentially use people’s information against them since they are crooks after all. I’m glad to see I was right about that, and I don’t feel bad that I didn’t sign up for RealDebrid when everyone was hoping on the hype train for it.

I know I’m late to the parrrty here, but for dumm-dumms like me, anybody care to explain what the cause behind this was?
From what I can tell Real Debrid was based out of France… but what made them change their tune all of a sudden? Did the owners get threatened similar to what people think happened to the guy running rarbg?
Or did France just suddenly start enforcing copyrights or something? If so, then does that mean any other things non-debrid related that are based out of France are likely to run into issues too? Like, I know some open-source stuff also uses (or at least used?) France as a soemthing of a copyright-haven so that they could basically host patented media codecs etc in a separate repo (I think Fedora nd OpenSuse both have unofficial repos that do that). Wondering if that kinda thing would also be affected too or just the *debrid stuff?
No shit. I don’t understand why people ever thought they were a good option in the first place.
