It sounds like you think using this is illegal! You might be interested in this political treatise that is very hard to find - disappeared even - and it has nothing to do with IP.
I meant things like "Dungeons and Dragons" and the "Tetris" movie. They're even in the thumbnail! If you reward people tokens for sharing/seeding this kind of stuff, then you are very much deriving unsanctioned value from somebody elses work / intellectual property, which yes, is illegal.
If you want to use torrents to share literature, movies, music etc. that is from the public domain (e.g. older than 72 years without a renewed copyright claim) or if you want to use it to backup your own files or works then that's fine.
But you fully know that people will use it to pirate porn, series, games and movies. So what's the point of this discussion? This isn't about censorship, it's about common sense.
It's not whether we consider it illegal, it's whether international media corporations and their government guard dogs do. A blockchain isn't some magical get of jail free card that protects you, especially if you are openly advertising what you do.
