Torrents under attack

There is a little known war going on between the torrent sites and an organisation named Scene, their sole purpose is to totally eradicate all torrents, with tags like “Destroying the P2P’s, one step at a time”.

We already saw when Super torrents had their donations hacked and donated to charity; this is the sort of fate that all torrent sites can expect to have to deal with.

With this threat hanging over their heads will this stop the torrents from providing their services to people who want them, the problem is, that Scene are arguing against illegal file sharing, but they too are acting illegally in trying to defeat the torrents. Is this a case two wrongs making a right?
