Bit Torrent Search

  Please Note: This site is not affiliated with Google, 
  it simply makes use of Google Custom Search to 
  restrict your searches to Torrent files. You can do 
  this with any regular Google search by appending your 
  query with filetype:torrent. This technique can be 
  used for any type of file supported by Google 
  (http://www.google.com/).

  The intention of this site is to demonstrate the 
  double standard that was exemplified in the recent 
  Pirate Bay Trial. Sites such as Google offer much the 
  same functionality as The Pirate Bay and other Bit 
  Torrent sites but are not targeted by media 
  conglomerates such as the IFPI as they have the 
  political and legal clout to defend themselves unlike 
  these small independent sites.

  This site is created in support of an open, neutral 
  internet accessible and equitable to all regardless 
  of political or financial standing.

  Cheers! (Contact: i...@thepirategoogle.com)

"The description of "P2P filesharing applications" presented in this
workshop's call for participation offers nothing to distinguish KaZaA,
Grokster or Gnutella from the basic functions of the Internet and
ordinary, generally used operating systems. It also makes no mention
of he core functionality that these applications actually do provide:
search and discovery of the locations of files. Sharing files among a
group of users is a basic network capability that operating systems
and networks already provide."
