As the title says. do you guys know any pirate sites which have released their logistics, like cost of the servers, video servers etc. how much it costs to run them.

If you go off of the streaming services (like 123movies or something), they upload the downloaded files to 2+ video hosting websites, then display the links. They also have a shit ton of ads, so I guess they do get profit by how long they seem to last.

A few streaming services like the long gone kino.to pretend to upload videos on 3rd-party websites, but they host everything themselves to earn the entire ad revenue instead of only a portion of it.
