    There is a trick! You first need to left click the magnet link, this will bring a modal vpn ad with (iirc) a “continue without vpn” button. That button is the actual magnet link

      Lol I was wondering whether there was an actual intended way through. It still deters new users way too much though. What are they thinking

        Yeah it’s pretty shit. My guess is torrent sites lost a ton of traffic from API users (stremio, kodi etc…) so they have to squeeze harder on those remaining page views.
