All ban sharing copyright material. However, what people choose to do is another story.

There's little wrong with 4Shared itself, as far as I know.
The crowd which is not very concerned with copyright restrictions will use any service that is relatively easy for them to use. The issue is more their actions than the services they use, although some services appear to cater more to this group or are more popular with this group.
It's not always immediately apparent whether some download is legitimate or not.
