Just a tiny but important clarification. TPB didn't host illegal content. Just the magnet files pointing to them. This is an important distinction and the basic reason why shutting down a torrent tracker is nothing less than censorship. But I agree that it probably won't be the best move for FSFE to issue a PR for this. Strictly speaking this doesn't fall under FSFE's scope. -- Nikos Roussos http://www.roussos.cc
