Transmission BitTorrent client infected with ransomware

[spaceoctopus]

The free and popular BitTorrent client Transmission was infected with ransomware, yet again.

Built by a team of volunteers, Transmission is software that allows people to download movies, games, and other files through torrents, which splits large files into tiny pieces spread out among many users...

No surprise, the original intentions of torrent are now changed.
People use it primarily for downloading pirated software, movies and music.
In that environment, nobody gives something without having anything back!

I totally agree with you.
The torrent scene changed a lot since the old days of Mininova...
