This behavior is very concerning, especially since it's not a one-off, their other replies on that account aren't much better.

Why is there a 10 year old replying to all the reviews?

More accurately why are they bothering? Question is what exactly is their end here? This just a "lets have a laugh as our business burns". Their service was a download manager and torrent downloader... that just seems on par with say the nitros sellers that pretend to think their products are used to make whipped cream.

I get it, the law cracked down on them, they can't continue to provide the service they were providing, and they know they cannot provide the service that 99.9% of their users use them for. I also get that they aren't offering refunds because... well their money is about to dry up really fast. But what's the point of the trolling etc... I have no comprehension of

They should know that it's not going to help them, especially them trying to accuse all people giving criticism of their service to be fake reviews and attempting to dox them. If anything that'll hurt them and just end up getting their TrustPilot account banned.

It isn't even new, the replies have been the same childish shit since at least May of 2022.
