You have to separate pirating and torrenting. I'm pirating stuff non stop each day. I'm torrenting maybe once a month, if that. It's just not the go to thing for a lot of users, so issues around VPNs and torrenting probably aren't that pressing to warrant any kind of reaction.

Yuup. Torrents are for the rare thing I care about that isnt on either nzbgeek or matrix.

Matrix? Are there some Matrix rooms with Linux ISO?

Looking it up and the ut's all news like this:

NZBMatrix, a popular Usenet indexer, closed in 2012 due to a large takedown notice from Hollywood studios
