They've given up long time ago (at the time of the trial). >although I'm a little worried about who is running them, but I guess they can be trusted TPB is now managed by someone else, and they've as shady as the the others. >TOR will still be a safe haven for torrents Tor isn't good for p2p, see: https://blog.torproject.org/blog/bittorrent-over-tor-isnt-good-idea https://blog.torproject.org/blog/bittorrent-over-tor-isnt-go... >there are many decentralized techs which are being ready to serve torrents You can really easily build your own search engines by listening/crawling the DHT.

    From a pirate's perspective, Tor can be useful for BitTorrent sites, except for sending the actual BitTorrent traffic over it. I think the greatest problem here isn't that file sharers keep getting caught en masse so that we have that kind of need, but the risk and effort necessary to even run a P2P site. Tor in itself, as an anonymizing network, can help a lot there as long as you don't mess up. That is, as a .torrent file store and search engine.
