Probably worth noting that FlareSolverr hasn’t actually worked to bypass Cloudflare in a while. They got noticed by CF, and CF started actively preventing their solvers from working. However, several trackers still require FlareSolverr to run before they’ll even try to connect.

In some cases, you can visit the site directly, and then manually solve the CF captcha. That will usually allow it to work, even when Solverr is broken.

Yeah, it feels like a “loose lips sink ships” situation… But on the other side of the same coin, there’s no way the TV providers were ignorant of this. They undoubtedly already knew, so it’s not like this article is going to bring anything new to light. If anything, it may put a target on the backs of some of the people who were quoted in the article for litigation, but that’s not going to actually stop the boxes from being sold in the long term.
