When a Torrent disappears from 1337x, how do you find out what happened? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Yesterday there was a controversial movie torrent that was getting 1000s of downloads and was on the "popular this week" page, and today it's just gone. I went to the uploader's account page and it's not there either. Just like it never existed.

I'm SUPER curious of the story behind what happened. Did the uploader take it down? 1337? Why?

EDIT: The movie was Lady Ballers 2023 (wasn't sure if I was allowed to say) I did a little more research, and I think the copy the uploader put out was YTS but I don't think they were affiliated with them. Maybe YTS told them to take it down? The movie is on their (YTS/YIFY's) website.

Welp, out of curiosity, I read up on this movie. It's way dumber than I expected from the title. It's just 'Ladybugs' all over again.

Edit: holy shit does this get worse and worse. It's like a right-wing wet dream. The cast is literally nothing but hate-group aligned right-wing YouTube personalities lol.

They even have Ted Cruz in it (as himself).

This nightmare world we live in would be hilarious if we didn't have to, you know, live in it.

Gross, Shapiro is in it. Just go watch ladybugs, at least it had the kid from Seaquest.

Lol, the more right wingers bitch about this the more I straight up want drag queens to actually do this.

Let's unironically make the strawman world right wingers are mad at so they can seethe.

It’s just ‘Ladybugs’ all over again.

The only ladybugs I know of is Lindsey Graham:

Daily Wire? Yeah, no thanks.

Tell me at least the main characters learn a heart-warming lesson at the end.

Lol, streaming on DailyWire+. Not even straight to DVD.
