#2When TPB had to be blocked in the Netherlands and they switched to recommending magnet links instead of torrents (pretty close after each other), I thought someone would have done this sooner. But it's here now, and proxies do their job just fine ^^. (I couldn't load the page directly as it's blocked here.)

#4This gets very meta very quickly.
If linking to copyrighted data 'should' be illegal (SOPA), then what about descriptions of that data that are sufficient to identify the original, but not reconstruct it (magnet links)?
And if those were made illegal, then what about descriptions of those descriptions? You can recurse infinitely on this.
Beyond mere amusement, after just one or two recursions, you get to the point where it would be difficult to write a law that would criminalize magnet links without also criminalizing people who link to a Sparknotes-like summary or commentary for a piece of media.

Should be titled "The whole Pirate Bay magnet archive except this torrent" :-)
I think a magnet link is based on the hash of the contents too, so it might be an interesting problem to include the torrent's own magnet link in itself.

#6Awesome idea. Magnet links will be around as the standard for some time it seems :)

Son, in this house we respect Russel's paradox!

You need to put your link example with new lines above and below, indented by two spaces. This will put it in a scrollable code box instead of stretching the page.
