They make money off the data you provide to them.How does VirusTotal make money ?
Data is money marketers know this secret1. VirusTotal API: https://developers.virustotal.com/reference/public-vs-premium-api
2. It is a product of Google (Yup! Since 2012. Google bought them).
It's free because you are the product.
DONT use it! after you use it your links gets blacklisted, and reported to takedown
Didn't know that.1. VirusTotal API: https://developers.virustotal.com/reference/public-vs-premium-api

P.S. It's free because you are the product.
That is BS (For the most part) IMO.VirusTotal makes money by charging subscription fees.

How do you mean? As in they'd never check the links unless we put them in?
Didn't know that.
Selling data I think
don't you realise that not all links are available to them directly ?How do you mean? As in they'd never check the links unless we put them in?
Here is the proof: i have round 60 links i promote products. from 4 weeks i never got a blacklist or a notification from TakeDown (Changed Clocker), today i got one from the links and tested it in VirusTotal because i was curious how was that possible, and as soon as i tried 1 link, it was as Clean. after 5 minutes i got a takedown email from my hosting provider. exactly the same link i tested.How do you mean? As in they'd never check the links unless we put them in?
