What tracker was he using? If he was running his own tracker, then this is BS. If he was using someone else's that is typically associated with piracy (TPB) then I would understand Google for taking down his account. Edit: He is using pirate bay and demonoid. I guess you are the company you keep in this situation. Maybe Google wouldn't have caught on, or would have been more forgiving if the torrent was tracked on the same domain name?

Yeah, claiming he lost for putting his own book "on a torrent" is burying the lede. Google isn't going to touch The Pirate Bay with a ten foot pole.

  Funny, cause I changed the sentence last minute. I had put "on TPB" first, but changed especially not to be said that I wanted to point to TPB especially :).

  Is that so? Entering thepiratebay.org to Google search returns very relevant results.
