It’s not that I don’t trust, but I want to understand. What is actually happening and how do these Repack thingies work?

And why are they called that 😂

Thanks in advance.

Edit: thanks so much for the replies all, I think I got it! :)

Repacks are only useful if your internet is from third world countries, like 100Mbps

In Europe repacks are useless

Edit: apparently Germany doesn't seem to have normal speeds

Me from Germany, living in a populated city, downspeed doesn't get higher than 60Mbits: 💀💀💀
