They merely allow you to search and download .torrent files. The tracking is completely third party.

Potter, it is a nice try on their behalf to try to cover themselves in the veil of legality. It's a nice try, but it fails.
let's say you live in an apartment building, and each unit has been converted into a drug den, each run by a dealer pushing various forms of illegal narcotics. You stand at the front door, and when people say "who's got heroin", you say "apartment 2, and yeah, here is your 50% for AFF". "who's got weed" "Apartment 3, 4, and 8 - have you considered chatting live online at cams?".
You aren't selling the drugs, after all, just providing a search engine for drugs.
Conspiracy to commit an illegal act is a crime in an of itself. Without a torrent search engine or listing service, there would be little chance that surfers would randomly find torrents. The illegal act of distribution STARTS with the search...
None of this is about privacy or human rights. You don't have the right to steal.
