Is this some kind of forum policy? Do you mean that is is illegal to encourage people to break the law so there is a forum policy against it. Laws can be bad and in some cases it is good to encourage people to break them.

Also, event if the EU directive is implemented there is in many countried exceptions for personal use. So you cannot assume things just from the EU directive.
