Yeah on one of my browsers it flagged it. Which is odd because Limewire is a legit business that's been around before social media, but they use to get hated on by companies and regulators because they allowed people to share free music. I don't have any other links personally. As I directly uploaded this file myself. I see that 70 people downloaded it so far with no problem.
I would recommend making an exception on your ublock for it, after you research limewire and see if you trust it.
Limewire has had a history of uploaders using it for malware distribution (hence why it's probably included in the filter).
Fair enough, I didn't think about that. But I feel every torrent or sharing site has that potential flaw.
Just use soulseek, limewire is blocked for a reason
102 downloads so far. I guess it's not blocked. Just because you all don't like a site or platform doesn't mean I'll conform. I'll check soulseek at my leisure though, if it is superior in functionality and efficiency then I will switch.
