Since when did 1337x start doing this crap? (lemm.ee)

Not sure when this happened, but I just noticed I can't download any torrents or magnet links on 1337x without clicking Download without VPN.

At first, I wasn't even seeing the bottom half of that popup since uBlock was blocking it. When I added a custom rule to block the popup, that totally broke the download buttons, so I had to disable uBlock.

Is anyone else noticing this? I'm not going to disable my adblocker on freaking 1337x, I'll just stop going to 1337x 😆

Unless that's some error, what were they thinking?

My secret tip: go to inspect element, search the box that has the link and copy the embedded link. You are welcome ;)

Edit: Also do all of that from tor. Once you got the link you can go back to your torrent client.

Haha. I didn't think of that! It totally works, but is pretty irritating to use daily.

Another poster knew the right filter to add to UBO, so I went with that.
