Would a site be legally clean if it allows you to download “pirated” material, but only allows you to download a list of what has been downloaded?

Question

Law in IT

Naturally downloadable content can be anything, not just pirated.
It will not be stored on the server either.

A bunch of answers and not a single one to the question asked
is distributed in any form,
even there is no storage
, we can conditionally assume that everything downloaded immediately goes to / dev / null

Answer 1

Local sages prefer to beat around the bush.
Well, for a change, I will answer directly.
The law allows or prohibits - not the site and other technical solutions, but the activity . If you distribute
counterfeit content using this site , the court is completely indifferent to how your bytes download. Is there a fact of activity prosecuted by law? Guilty if you do not prove that you have nothing to do with this activity . "It's not me, it's just such a site" is no excuse for the court.

Answer 2

Torrents don't store anything either. They just let you download an incomprehensible file. But this did not bother anyone when blocking the rutracker.

Answer 3

Never!
Such a site would definitely break the law!
Any site containing at least one single link (of any type or format!) to illegal (including "pirated") content will be illegal, because. this would fall under "illegal posting or dissemination of information by information technology means on the Internet".
If the content posted on the site is personally yours (its author is only you personally and / or you have the right to distribute on the Internet) and its content does not in any way violate the current legislation of the country where the site content is located (or the placement of any links on this site to such content located on the Internet with access to this content through them), then there are no problems.

Answer 4

Keeping and distributing pirates, no? The intention is there. They may even add an attempt to circumvent the restrictions of the law with the help of the use of special technical means.
That is, you can store anything at home. But as soon as you declare to the world that "here I have warese gigas (or I know where to get warese gigases)" - distribution begins, no matter in what form it takes place.
There is no data on torrent trackers either - only links :)
