Preview of Trackerless Magnet URI

Trackerless Magnet URI by Aleksandersen

Rewrites all Magnet URI links so that they only contain the BitTorrent info hashes (BTIH). This forces BitTorrent clients to use decentralized (“trackerless”) peer-discovery such as DHT rather than server-assisted peer-discovery via central trackers.

A Magnet URI with and without trackers
About this extension
Rewrites all Magnet URI links so that they only contain the BitTorrent info hashes (BTIH). This forces BitTorrent clients to use decentralized (“trackerless”) peer-discovery such as DHT rather than server-assisted peer-discovery via central trackers. Downloads may be initially slower as peer-discovery can take a bit longer if your client hasn’t been running in a little while.
