    Hey all,

    I don't plan on making a Mininova or a Pirate Bay, but I plan to link some torrent files on my upcoming site. Is this fine with the T&S of Adsense?

    Thanks

    No, you can't use adsense on such sites.

    That's piracy, and adsense doesn't agree with piracy.:D

    That would get you quickly banned from adsense, not worth it

    I would say no, because everyone knows what torrents are used for.

    No u can't...

    Here is a good way to find whether adsense is allowed in such cases...If you have a competitor, than check whether they are using adsense, if not than obviously its not allowed. ;)

    Do you see AdSense ads on other torrent sites? If not - then you're not allowed.
    It's 100% sure you will get banned for content like this. Try another way to monetize your site.

    They are going to ban him sooner or later (I think sooner). It's amazing how many adsense publishers don't even care to read the AdSense ToS.
