||||

## ▷ How-to Send Reports
|
||||
|
||||
To suggest something for the list, please leave a comment on this [Reddit thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH/comments/10bh0h9/comment/j4d2dld/), or contact us via [Divolt](https://redd.it/uto5vw).
|
||||
|
||||
Never include a URL, just the name of the site / software, and the reason you feel people should avoid it.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that our goal is to track things that should be avoided but still get recommended often, such as ThePirateBay.
