I agree with you. But at the same time, filming a tiktok promoting criminal activity is really stupid. Not telling people should be rule number 1.

if too many people know about the site, it will draw attention of the corpos too. that is why i cant fathom why some video sites i have used even tell you to share the site with other people in social media or whatnot.

I thought it about getting way more traffic than the site could sustain leading to shutdown. 

This is what I've seen sites credit as a reason the most (and copyright infringement). 

But they make it more known than before unlike our word of mouth strategy which keeps it in the inner circle for longer
