    Wow this sure is overstated. The biggest actual risk here is ISPs doing deep inspection and getting data from private trackers.

    Not nothing, but the ‘RCE’ they are claiming relies on an edge case and a lot of manual work on the part of a potential attacker who would also need to be able to intercept your traffic on the off chance you run qbit on windows and use qbit to install python.

    This, to me, is a big nothing burger.

    Nice… I was putting off 5.0.0 because I never install major releases until there’s been a patch. I worked in software too long to trust.

    I switched back to nzb full time last week. Don’t need to run a VPN and it is more stable. It’s still cheaper than streaming with 2 paid indexers and 2 paid servers.

      Paid indexers? Isn’t everything on the DHT anyhow? And a VPN is only $2/mo.
