Framed: Yify

"Framed YIFY" refers to the mid-2010s phenomenon of highly compressed, low-bitrate, high-definition video torrents that redefined media consumption, often at the expense of visual quality. The era concluded with the 2015 shutdown of the YIFY/YTS group following legal action by the MPAA, leading to a surge of malicious clones that "framed" the original site's interface to trick users.
