They host links to files that break copyright laws. They should be driven from the field.

But they aren't breaking any laws.....so no, they should not be driven from the field.

Well, as usual instead of reserving all un-enumerated rights to the people, the courts chose to deny the right to link to government/corporate censored material. See the DeCSS/2600 case for the root of these problems.

But hey, if the next president doesn't have a distraction for us, we might be able to pass some laws that would please the majority of voters on this issue.

They potentially link to files that break copyright laws. They can also link to 100% legit files.

VCR's can potentially copy protected works, same with Xerox machines, yet both of these are legal.

Linking to "illegal" content is not illegal and never has... Sorry man, if they aren't breaking the law, ergo shouldn't "be driven from the field."

Trackers just list peers and what they are sharing, they don't do or host anything illegal. Sorry guy.

reply to Stick to Facts
According to my interpretation, linking to the "illegal" content is a violation of DMCA Section 512(d) regarding Information location tools, assuming that the servers are located in the U.S.

If they aren't in the US, this is a stupid lawsuit.

Though, I hardly see what a DMCA violation has to do with handing over all U.S. user data to the MPAA.

It would seem the majority of content on these sites: suprnova, torrentspy, mininova, etc. is illegal and the operators know that it... it is sad though, that the **AA's don't try to embrace the technology and understand the overall message of "our movies/music suck and we charge an arm and a leg for it"

So does Google. So, you obviously believe that Google should be shut down as well.

And so do DNS servers! Why, if you're in china, half the internet is illegal! Quick, shut down the internet to preserve international laws!

I can use google to find the direct .torrent links themselves. That means Google is no better than the torrent index sites! ONOES!

Files don't break copyright laws, people break copyright laws.
