Description from extension meta

Detects and warns against sites known to illegally repost mods.

Image from store Stop Mod Reposts
Description from store Copyright infringement is an everyday situation for modders. Most of the somewhat popular mods today have at some point been illegally copied and redistributed onto a third party site, without any acknowledgement or permission of their developers. Many of these websites are hosted in Vietnam or Russia, and are hard to take down due to different copyright legislation. Many of these sites illegally monetize their download links to earn money off of the modders' hard work, and several even go as far as to claim ownership of the illegal content. Some of them are known to host malware and viruses and claim that these are real, harmless mods. This has to stop. When DMCAs and take-down notices fail, we have to rely on the community to stop people from downloading mods from these sources. However, many of the websites engaging in the type of activity outlined above look very well designed and official, confusing many players and making them believe that these sites are actually the real ones. As a result, many machines are infected with viruses and malware, modders lose revenue and reputation and are spammed with reports about bugs which have already been fixed in newer versions of their mods, since only the old versions are hosted on the illegal sites. Stop Mod Reposts is designed to stop this. Here's how we plan to do it: - Letting people know that the sites are illegal. There is no way we can stop people from using these sites when they're unaware that the actions of the host is against the law and that the host is ignorant of the modders' rights. Therefore, this extension will display an overlay when browsing a site like this. - Letting people know that visiting these sites puts their computers at risk. No one wants to be infected with malware, so we'll warn them that the sites potentially can harm their machines. The sites this extension warns about are the same sites as are listed on https://github.com/StopModReposts/Illegal-Mod-Sites and is updated every few days or hours with new hosts.

  • (2021-01-05) L. W.: Love to see the community doing something about this, I can't count the amount of times I've seen friends download from these sites and their machines are infected and then they never try modded again (and a younger more naïve version of me may have done the same in the past). Great extension to just let run and then forget about.

  • (2019-06-19) baddie PRO: A useful feature, I dunno how easy it'd be to implement, but when you go to a certain repost site, there is an option to redirect to the legitimate mod download. I know this'd probably be a pain to implement each individual site though.

    I am not good at English. This is a sentence translated by Google translation. Secondary distribution of MOD is done on this site! https://www.gamemodd.com/minecraft/mods/4638-somnia-1710-172-164-152.html
  • (2018-01-14, v:4.0.1) Nate Richards: New website suggestion. I know it's not a mod repost site, but still

  • (2015-05-26, v:2.3.2) freddy fazbear (Daniel Creage): Stop texture pack reposting
    I know this sounds silly, but every time I roam on the Internet, there is Texture pack reposted. Same for MCPE mods and texture packs.
  • (2015-01-29, v:2.2) Nikolai Jay Summers (Vatril): Report button
    How about a report button on the top right of the screen (Where all other addons are). If you click the buton a littlw window pops up where you can give the negative stars and subbmit you request. This function could help keeping the addon up to date.
  • (2015-01-07, v:1.4) Not Installing
    Whenever I click the +Free button, the "NETWORK_FAILED" message pops up. I definitely know that it's not my internet that is the problem, so can you fix this? Thanks, and I am looking foward to the fix and downloading this extension!
