Came across 2 different telegrams for monkrus. His/her site here https://w16.monkrus.ws/ points to "real_monkrus" but the "m0nkrus" has an insane amount of people in it.

t.me/real_monkrus

t.me/m0nkrus

What is the "legit" way to find monkrus? Do they ever use PGP and how can I tell that a new site is also the same user? Both telegrams have different methods of donation, so it feels unlikely they're both real.

I won't blame these torrents, but I've recently gotten a state-actor-level type of malware and I'm double-checking everything that's been into my machine.

I think it's safe to say the 50k person "t.me/m0nkrus" telegram is a very dedicated malware-for-hire type shit.

Torrents are very similar to M0nkrus' shit but they've implanted very sophisticated viruses in most of them.

Might want to include that in the megathread @db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com
