Anyone have any thoughts about the appropriateness of this?

My concerns are that:

  * The link is unfounded and without explanation, it might be spam.

  * The link is to a site which promotes illegal activity.

Where do we draw the line here, would we preserve a link to a racial hate site?

In my opinion, comparing copyright infringement to racism is a little absurd,
but it does illustrate that there is a fuzzy line here. Do we object to
politically or ethically controversial outgoing links?
