A few years back, a friend of mine released a program that was pirated pretty bad for a few weeks, we countered it by creating dummy-torrents filled with dead files (such as overly-large scans of various body parts in TIFF and BMP format) and distributed them to various torrent sites under the same name. I think we got about a dozen people in on the prank so that in the end, 9/10 torrents for his program was really one of us showing the dark side of the moon.

Can we set up the same for SEV and Dom3?
I would gladly help ...
