Aramike, I can easily find direct links to pirated software, and other illegal stuff on google and any other search engine, by your logic they should be prosecuted as well. All search engines work in ways very similar to torrent sites.

If that's my "logic" than you didn't either read or comprehend my posts.
Google isn't in the business of primarily categorizing pirated works.
Piratebay is.
That's been my logic all along.
Am I wrong in the assumption that the VAST majority of torrent search engines such as piratebay consists of illegal distributions?
Furthermore, if typical search engines are adequate what's the need for torrent sites such as Piratebay? What market does it serve?
You guessed it: illegal piracy.
Postscript: I am a tad shocked that most people on here seem to think that sites such as those who clearly primarily serve illegal distribution are okay - even without demonstrating that other uses prevail. Makes one think people have a vested interest...
PPS: If you Google most illegal torrent files, the first links you find are on the torrent directories. I have nothing against torrents - just being intellectually honest about copyrighted works.
