Are .ru sites safe? (self.piracy)
submitted 4 months ago by hungryphrog to c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

I'm not tech savvy and have noticed that many streaming sites are .ru, and as someone located in Finland, I want to make sure if they are dangerous to use.

I mean statistically .ru sites are more often malicious than .com sites.

Ok maybe not, couldnt find any evidence, altho I heard that years ago. So that might have changed, maybe because of all those new non-country-domains.

I have no data on that. Cheaper and easier to get tlds like .world might be the most dangerous of all.
