If I remember right, torrentfreak is set to be severely penalized on HN by the mods. My memory is fuzzy, but I recall reading that around the time of piratebay/pirate party one of the mods said that they wanted to lower how long those stories stayed on the front page. Naturally they can have removed that by now.
