In a wave of recent publicity, Torrentreactor.net recently announced that it had randomly selected the Russian outpost of Gar to be renamed as Torrentreactor. Although there has been a great deal of speculation that the entire story is a hoax, Torrentreactor.net has allegedly paid $148,000 for the privilege of renaming Gar and whilst none of the villagers have any idea who or what Torrentreactor.net actually is, there is no doubt that the money will probably come in very useful.
The village of Gar is located 100 miles from the Seversk nuclear reactor. It is very much a place that time forgot and the only income the 214 residents have is through selling their vegetables in the nearby town. When questioned by the media, the villagers said that the unexpected windfall would be used to pay for repairs to the roads as well as providing new agricultural equipment and machinery.
Torrentreactor.net, which is a well-known file sharing and BitTorrent download site, has also agreed to pay for a brand new broadband Internet connection to the village. Presumably the villagers will then be able to check out exactly who their generous “Robin Hood” benefactor really is.
