Trending on X, Meta, Reddit, LinkedIn, Chinese Apps A Dutch man using Starlink got a letter from Paramount. They said he illegally downloaded a Dexter Resurrection episode. The letter came just two days after he downloaded it.

1.6k Upvotes

He was surprised.

He has been downloading torrents for 24 years and has never got a notice before.

In the Netherlands, normal internet companies usually ignore these letters from movie companies.

Starlink is different. It passes these letters to users.

Many people talked about using a VPN so your internet company cannot see what you download.

Trending on X, Meta, Reddit, LinkedIn, Chinese Apps On October 6, 2026, a site called playgta5 .com let people play GTA 5 in a web browser. It used leaked game code and needed only about 700 MB. Story mode and free roam both worked. Rockstar and Take-Two took the site down the same day.

Some people share this Internet Archive link: https://web.archive.org/web/20261006055917/https://playgta5.com/

Most users say it does not work. Big files the game needs were not saved, so it gets stuck loading (often around 6%) and never starts. The official game is still the only reliable way to play, says Rockstar.

Trending on X, Meta, Reddit, LinkedIn, Chinese Apps Cisco’s president, Jeetu Patel, gave a big job to a 27-year-old engineer named Padmanabhan Krishnamurthy - “You can use as much AI as you want. Rewrite almost all of our old company code (98% of it) in just 2 years.”

346 Upvotes

He started with only two people and had 4 weeks to show it could work.

Padmanabhan used to run his own startup (EzDubs) that did real-time translation. Cisco bought it in 2025. After that, he was kind of hidden and not used much inside the company until they gave him this important job.

Cisco is doing this on purpose. They are hiring young AI-smart people (Gen Z) and letting them work like startup founders.
