I've rattled on about this before, but the notion that operational security is irrelevant for media piracy resources because if one gets taken down an identical replacement will be up and running by next week is really only true if the thing you're interested in pirating is, like, MCU movies. If you're into really niche shit, every takedown is a potential disaster, because at least half the time it turns out that of eight billion people on the planet there was precisely one who possessed exactly the right intersection of interests and technical know-how to provide that resource.
I still remember that when the Mangadex purge happened bigger series simply moved elsewhere, but one I was reading was being fan translated by someone who actually got scared off and decided to drop the series, and so for a while it just wasn't being translated at all (During this time I even tried to help by doing my own translation of a small bonus chapter, but my language skills are nowhere near good enough to actually do a whole fan translation on my own). Because it was (at that time) just one single person on earth who had both the knowledge and desire to translate the series into English. A translator more compotent than me has taken over now and things are back to normal, but for a while there new chapters just were not available to an English speaking audience at all.
