I don't usually torrent files but when I do it's for a gamepatch of 'Koikatsu'.
I decided to head to the Patreon page of the developer, like many times before, and copy/pasted his magnet link into qBittorrent.
Magnet Link (Patreon)
Almost straight away upon downloading or even opening the client Malwarebytes started blocking website IPs like crazy.
I looked these up on AbuseIPDB and it doesn't look good. (I understand that these IPs are not static addresses and even reported IPs with a 'high likelihood of danger' can be false flags.)
Further research brought me to a page that describes Malwarebytes' web security as 'unique' from other security programs making P2P networking interesting. Even if the files of the torrent are safe. As of now I'm using the Premium version, described here as 'unique'.

So what's going on here, what's your opinion? Is it Malwarebytes' laziness, my ignorance on the subject, or something completely different?
