  Protecting himself from what? The community hosts literally zero pirated content.

    But it links to it, which is equally as bad. In your logic thepiratebay would never have any problems with law enforcement because they technically don’t host any of the pirated content, just link to it.

      Pirate Bay shouldn’t, but linking to torrents can at least give megacorps some kind of backwards excuse to come after them.

      The pirating communities here don’t link to anything. It’s literally against their rules to do so. It’s solely for discussion.
