I really don't think that Aaron would be giving these people links to resources and showing them advice from lawyers if he was out to get them and brand them as running "illegal content businesses". I don't even see how it was painted in that light. Just because they have an N beside them in the title 18 doesn't mean they're "illegal" it just means they aren't fully compliant to the US law which may or may not apply to them.
If Aaron hadn't updated the list, or added anyone to it, then maybe it would be a weapon.. But as Aaron's said several times, if he gave a fuck about his content site, he'd have updated it in the last year or so. Sure, Aaron lacks tact sometimes and that's a part of his charm, but an ulterior motive, I really don't see it.
You don't have to listen to me obviously, since I'm self-righteous and full of myself. But hey, figured I'd stick my two cents in.
