Makes sense now, thanks. I hadn't heard about this story before, and previous posts were making it sound like just posting the links was enough to commit infringement (which is why I was asking about it). For contributory infringement, yeah, that makes a big difference.
Still not 100% sure why extradition was granted though, if the links (intentional or not) weren't illegal in the UK. Were his servers in the US?
