Well, If you hate that Demonoid, Pirate Bay and other sites are discussed and "advertised" at Mobile Read, then Leave the Site. Do not log on here and enjoy your bliss. The fact is that many people can find out about the darknet without looking at Mobile Read. In fact many newspapers have articles discussing piracy and other issues on the net. They often site websites such as Pirate Bay.

People do a lot of things you're not letting them discuss here, things that whether I think they're right or wrong, whether they're illegal or not, they have the freedom to do. Mobile read is making a choice of what they're allowing. That's pretty much what you're saying, I just think if mobile read were more serious about not helping people in their piracy activities, you'd draw the line somewhere else. This whole "freedom of discussion" is a convenient cover. You going to allow them to discuss assassinating the president? Blowing up Dallas? I doubt it.
The fact is that this community does give pretty clear instructions on how to remove drm in several places, and this thread is an advertisement for a site which illegally provides ebooks.
