So... what of TPB? All they do is link to copyright material; none if it's hosted there.
TPB is legal. And they don't even link to copyrighted material, they link to a swarm from which you can git information on where to download copyrighted material.
It was implied 'link to legally copyrighted material'...
The Pirate Bay does not have to worry about the DMCA, they were originally (are?) hosted in Sweden, and US law like the DMCA doesn't apply there.
Yes, andrewljohnson agrees about that. However, his point is:
>Linking to copyrighted material should not be illegal
And I have to concur. This should not be a copyright violation.
