Is there any evidence that this “YTS” that we’re talking about right now is the real YTS? Whoever was behind YTS got into legal trouble a few years ago and shut down his site, leaving the markets to lots of copycats with YTS-inspired designs and domain names.


There is no official YTS. YIFY-TORRENTS was shut down, the most popular and semi-professional site is YTS.(some domain), but there is no official one.


Thanks for the explanation. I always thought YTS and YIFY-TORRENTS were the same operation.


The original would still be the real one even if it has been shut down.


Well yes, but it wouldn't be YTS but YIFY-TORRENTS.
