Following a formal notice from the FNEF (https://fnef.fr/les-adherents/), Real-Debrid is strengthening its anti-piracy measures. As you already know, we actively comply with DMCA and are already blocking a certain number of infringing torrents. In the coming hours: - audiovisual files available on a number of cyberlockers listed on the USTR blacklist or listed in the European “CCounterfeit and Piracy Watch List” will all be blocked. - a filtering by file name will also be applied, in accordance with the request of the FNEF, this may unfortunately lead to false positives that we will process manually. - a blocking of all torrents hashes of private torrent trackers mentioned in cases at the Paris judicial court - a complete purge of files potentially cached on the previously mentioned criteria - the deactivation of the API endpoint /instantAvaibility - a blocking of counterfeit Kodi / Stremio applications to the extent that they are identifiable

      As I’ve said in other comments you can easily get your money back, probably would be worth it since it’s not like RD will be of much use once they start pulling cached files.

          I didn’t say ask them for a refund. I said get your money back. A chargeback is more than fair in this case considering their service is already or about to become worthless. Yeah they’ll probably ban the account but they don’t have the leverage anymore to threaten you not to do that because yet again, the service is worthless at this point.
