Eh, I think it's clear they don't host the actual intellectual property; they're mostly like signs pointing to who actually is hosting the IP. It seems like prosecuting those actually hosting the IP is too much work or would cost too much money and so the torrent indexers are prosecuted instead.

I don't think their motives are relevant.

Their motives are entirely relevant. Especially when they speak out against it. The most prolific site ever, has the word PIRATE in it. I mean come on.
