Is Linking to the Homepage of a Site that Hosts Copyrighted Content OK?

    I know that hosting, directly linking to, or embedding copyrighted content on my site goes against AdSense policies (please correct me if i'm wrong).

    However, is it OK to create a link on my site that goes to the homepage of a site with copyrighted content, not the actual page that displays this content?

    Thanks!

    Let me rephrase that...

    Because EVERYTHING is copyrighted, is it ok to link to sites that host copyrighted content that's illegal to have on the site in question?

    No, it's against the Adsense program policies to link to a warez site.
