The Pirate Bay - a step in the right direction?

In case anyone is interested,

I recently sent a polite complaint to the Pirate Bay about a torrent hosted on Pirate Bay servers which enables people to receive a copy of my content without my permission.

Within a few hours after sending the complaint, the link to download the torrent was not available.

To my great surprise, Pirate Bay did even more than that. They deleted his username too. All his torrents (hundreds) were gone. The person was uploading torrents daily during the previous few weeks with links to screen capture previews on blogspot. Also on blogspot were ads next to the previews.

I also complained to blogspot. As of today, his blog on blogspot was also deleted. But it took blogspot at least several days to do it.

I am still surprised that PB removed so many torrents.

Is it because PB does not allow porn torrents?

Or they do not allow torrents if people try to profit by sending some traffic to other sites with ads (such as a link to a preview on blogspot with blogspot ads)?

Or PB has decided to become more responsible like rapidshare? Now they remove a torrent if anyone complains?

Or what?
