I recently installed some torrent search engines into my qBittorrent application and I was wondering if it came with any privacy concerns.

How does it gather the data using Python? Does it visit the website using my default browser or does it fetch it in some other way?

    AFAIK (but not sure) the only way to search torrents is to reference a torrent tracker, which is likely some sort of more or less centralized place like “The Pirate Bay” website which might or might not log your connection attempts.
