Agree with them or not, they are not being hypocrites here. Note your own word, using. Not distributing, using. Not linking, using.

Of course it is different. But since they so brazenly trample the rights of copyrights holders, it is not easy to feel any sympathy for TPB. This linking instead of storing the pirated materials onsite is such a sad excuse. They are actively supporting and enabling infringment of copyright. And they profit from it.
