No logic here. Don't know what was I thinking last night that I posted about this project here (stupid me!). I do regret posting it. Won't happen again.

I had once posted a thread in open-source contributions in arch formus, but was taken down due to legal issues (end of the day, TPB is illegal :P). So I didn"t put effort in building PKGBUILD. That"s the ONLY reason I posted about it here.
As far as I know, thepiratebay.org by itself is not illegal, only much but not all of the _linked_ content. As an example, you can most likely find a torrent-link for an Arch ISO. Probably worth noting that this defense breaks down when the project README specifically calls out high-profile illegal content as usage examples, though. :p Although the AUR *still* has that torrent client which is specifically designed to stream pirated movies via torrents, so I dunno. (I honestly thought that that was deleted, but I just checked and it"s still listed in the AUR!) -- Eli Schwartz
