They are a lemmy instance dedicated to the facilitation of piracy, and copyright infringement in general which is illegal. It is by nature in violation of the rules of your instance which prohibit illegal content, therefore it is imperative that you defederate it in accordance with your policies.

This wanker's not a lemmy.world user, but not just that, they made the account just now, maybe for the sole purpose of shitting on an instance

Correct. Trolling, and badly might I add.

And “copyright” has so many different definitions around the planet that it’s impossible to say if any of their discussions are about infringement.

They're literally facilitating the sharing of torrents. That's not "just talking about copyright infringement" that's the facilitation of it.

[–] ghost@xcore.social 51 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Torrent files also aren’t illegal.

Also, you’re on the internet, which isn’t beholden solely to US copyright laws, so unless you’re a lawyer who specializes in international copyright law, I doubt you can speak with any certainty to the legality of post content in every jurisdiction across the globe.

Here’s an idea: if you don’t want to see that content, block the community.

They are illegal when they contain copyrighted material like games or movies, which is what those contain, they literally say it.

Also, you’re on the internet, which isn’t beholden solely to US copyright laws

It's illegal in the US and either way it's against lemmy.world's server rules, specifically rule 1

No illegal content, including sharing copyrighted material without the explicit permission of the owner(s).

I think you're defending it because you're a pirate.

Torrent files do not contain any copyrighted material and it’s not my job to educate you on how they work.

I dont really give a shit why you think anything.

Oh wait

EDIT You're a lemm.ee user, so why do you care about Lemmy.world? Just focus on lemm.ee.

Does this seem to anyone else like a non-native speaker trying to sound officious or lawyerly?

[–] polyrhythm@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Did I miss something? Did this already happen? I can't seem to access the piracy community from lemmy.world, I'm getting a "couldnt_find_community" error
