From personal experience yts.mx the site is full of ads redirects, etc. so using their site with proper ad, java blocking is a must, as for the files themselves having issues (viruses, worms, Trojans) I have not had issues as I scan everything in a secure space before adding to my server. And nothing has been detected so far.
Last time I tried YTS they wouldn't show magnet links anymore without you making an account (and during downtime they show IIS.NET errors, which is a pretty clear indication a large corporation is hiring contractors to run it) which seems VERY sketchy put together
I use a seedbox to download the file from their site links for me, so I don’t see any of that anymore, so while I use their site I don’t directly interact with the torrent files or magnet links.
If the link is never exposed, how does your seedbox see it without an account? And are you x remote desktopping Firefox from your seedbox? i'm confused...
