Technically even with that list the studios have no power to do anything about it. It's illegal to redistribute other people's property, but most of those distributors are already running a virtual machine behind a strict NAT behind a VPN behind another VPN so good fucking luck, Hollywood.
The people merely discussing piracy have done no wrongdoings in the eyes of the law. Get fucked.
In fact, the Copyright Act of 1976 bans redistribution but not obtainment itself, so as long as you're not sending what you stole to other people you haven't broken a single law.
