And with regard to Google removing a site from search results, would you have to get a court order for that? Why would Google cooperate? Would Google potentially set up themselves for a lawsuit? It is easier said than done, Google isn't run by the government.

I find it astonishing how people twist themselves into knots defending TPB.
The Pirate Bay is not necessarily engaging in , or facilitating, piracy. Seriously?
If so, they are going about the legal distribution of content the wrong way.
AS far Google is concerned, they BENEFIT from piracy , since content illegally uploaded to YouTube drives eyeballs and therefore advertising to the site.
