RARBG Shuts Down

RARBG shuts down, and here’s their announcement:

Hello guys,
We would like to inform you that we have decided to shut down our site.
The past 2 years have been very difficult for us - some of the people in our team died due to covid complications,
others still suffer the side effects of it - not being able to work at all.
Some are also fighting the war in Europe - ON BOTH SIDES.
Also, the power price increase in data centers in Europe hit us pretty hard.
Inflation makes our daily expenses impossible to bare.
Therefore we can no longer run this site without massive expenses that we can no longer cover out of pocket.
After an unanimous vote we’ve decided that we can no longer do it.
We are sorry :(
Bye

I’m not sad that it’s shut down. After all, you know what they say, “piracy is the oldest profession in the world”. Although it might shrink with the development of streaming service, such as Netflix and HBO. What I’m sad about is that we are experiencing the aftermath of Covid 19, and I didn’t know a piracy website has to take that too. :(
