t411 or Torrent411 is a semi-private BitTorrent tracker website founded in 2008.[2] According to Alexa Internet, it was the 86th most visited website in France in December 2014, and the first in its category.[3]
History
In 2006 a BitTorrent tracker named QuebecTorrent[4] (in reference to Quebec) was created. In July 2008, QuebecTorrent was shutdown by the Canadian authorities.[5] Shortly after being shutdown a clone of the original website was created and named Torrent411. Torrent411 was developed by part of the team that created QuebecTorrent and they maintain the website, torrents, and members.[2] · [4] · .[6] The website's slogan is "Les pages jaunes du torrent",[7] or "The Yellow Pages of the Torrent" in English; the 411 in Torrent411 refers to the Yellow Pages telephone number in Canada; which acts a telephone directly look-up tool for residents of Canada.
In August 2011 Torrent411 moved to the new domain name t411.me to avoid possible censure by VeriSign, the US company that manages the .com top-level domain.
In June 2013, T411 has surpassed the 5 million members,[8] confirming its position as the first francophone tracker.
In October 29, 2014, the site suffered a massive DDOS attack.[9]
In February 20, 2015, t411.me becomes t411.io in response to a threat of blocking domaine10 name..[10]
In April 2, 2015, a French court order the French DNS access providers to block t411.me, following a complaint from the SCPP.[11][12]
