if your arguement is correct and the copyright is so strong
why is the act of trying to take away the .torrent files creator not a violation of their copyright

remember the file has no copyrighted material in it, and has no trade secrets since it based on an open spec.
I have answered your question by stating that section 106 indicates that the creator/copyright holder retains exclusive distribution rights. Section 107 (fair use) indicates the manner in which you can use content without violation. neither of these sections indicates that the items may be distributed in the manner of which you speak.

There I think that's answered.

The torrent is causing an illegal act to occur. You don't have the right to distribute material. The copyright holder does. Unless you change my mind with statutes, case law, or a judgement different from the one we are talking of, I believe that you are 100% wrong in your thoughts.

OK... there... now you can answer mine... point me to where fair use says you can distribute in the manner you talk of. No opinion.. just law.. show me. I showed you mine.. you show me yours.
