If HN has no policy against it and allows it to continue , then I suppose yes.

  but TPB takes down fakes torrents/malware all the time

    On a practical level am I more likely to get malware by clicking links from HN or downloading random torrents off TPB?

      On a practical level, both HN and TPB track users and have karma systems. If you click on links from established users, you are unlikely to experience malware on both sites.

        That's not really the point, you have to be more careful on one site than the other. Plus TBP links to far more executable binaries than HN.

      On a practical level you're also less likely to catch a computer virus if you stay off the Internet. Does that mean you should stop using the Internet?
