One of the most popular ways to circumvent the filters is by using proxies and mirrors.
Szathmari told TorrentFreak : Ninety-nine-point-seven percent of the tested mirrors are injecting additional JavaScript into the Web-browsing traffic.
A great share of these scripts serve content with malicious intent, such as malware and click fraud.
During his study, Szathmari found that the ads and the scripts presented by these proxies link to malware.
He also noted that the scripts could even generate fake videos.
ExtraTorrent group stated that,Its a serious issue.
Definitely, we cannot just ignore the fact that some of the original sites might also contain malware.
The entire details of his study including his methodology has been published by Szathmari in hisrecent blog post.
