    Piracy also isn’t copyright infringement but that’s what this is. Under the law, which sucks. And if it applies to us it should apply to them.

      Seeders are committing copyright infringement, by definition. Piracy actively encourages that behavior. Whether that is unethical or not can be debated though (FBI, I swear I have nyaa idea how qBT ended up on my machine, must have been a virus from a 4chan hacker).
