It seems like the commenters so far don't realise this is a parody website for programmer humour.
They ate the olognion
A very low effort blog article without links to any relevant information. The article mentions discussion on Reddit and Twitter, how hard is it to link those discussions? Its like someone typing a couple of paragraphs from their imagination and hoping that everyone would believe it.
Edit: seems the all the articles on the website follow the same theme.
"theolognion"
it's an onion parody for programmers.
Never heard of “PureTorrentDownloader” so I tried googling it. As far as I can tell, it doesn’t exist, and everything claimed in the article is a lie.
