Should have stayed down - copyright is being violated on that site

Copyrights are meant to be violated.

I'm LOLing from this thread, I am so amazed how much BHW has changed from when I first signed up. Anyone who stood up for Copyright rights would have been negatively repped right off the forum.

Myself personally I enjoy using expensive-ass software for free, mostly as a hobbyist. If I were to actually by off-chance start making money with any of the software I stole, then I would buy it.

Sorry, didn't mean to go off topic there

Pirate Bay shouldn't have returned. It is a badly moderated site, and causes many genuine torrenters to have a bad name. Any time that you mention 'torrent', 'Bittorent' or 'Pirate Bay' you immediately think of downloading illegal content. This were not the main concept of peer to peer file sharing.

P2P file sharing was about sharing things for free, and its not illegal to download since its just a civil issue in most countries.
