Torrentreactor.net Buys the Rights to Re-name Small Russian Village
Popular file sharing site, Torrentreactor.net, recently announced via its website that it has negotiated a deal to buy the rights to rename the remote Russian village of Gar. Despite a great deal of skepticism about the validity of the report, Torrentreactor.net is sticking to its claims and insists that the deal is a legitimate one that will see all 214 residents benefit from a higher standard of living as a result of the venture.
Torrentreactor.net has allegedly agreed to pay about $148,000 for the privilege of renaming the village Torrentreactor. The company says that the village, which is only 100 miles from Seversk Nuclear Reactor, currently has three computers in the entire village, only one of which enjoys Internet access via a dial-up connection.
Unsurprisingly, when questioned by the media, the local residents were rather confused about who and what Torrentreactor.net actually is, with some believing it to be a US nuclear Reactor, and others assuming it is the name of an environmental action group campaigning against nuclear reactors. But if it is true, the extra money generated by advertising revenue will help to repair roads, buy agricultural equipment and machinery, as well as aid the local school.
