Thank you for your understanding and co-operation.

Not to split hairs here but no torrent site contains illegal content. All torrent sites are actually legal. What is illegal is downloading copyright materials without permission. Since the torrent site doesnt host the content, they are not breaking the law.

Many people, myself included use torrents to share large linux distros and such, places like The Pirate Bay are the best place for these kinds of things.

Anyway, I dont want to start an argument, just wanted to point out the above point. For anyone wanting to still get on TPB there are obvious ways around it, such as googling for mirrors or just using another site.
