The only laws the site is bound by are those of the country it's hosted in… Which in this case appears to be Russia. If the site admins have used local laws in their country as justification for removing content it's a courtesy not an expectation.
The site owner doesn't need any justification at all to remove a torrent. Seems like in this situation it is because doing the right thing is important, not because of any law.
Just to be clear, we take the privacy of our users very seriously. As such, we take complaints of revenge porn very seriously.
I think there's a disconnect here between the point I've been making and what you all are choosing to interpret… I didn't argue that the content should or shouldn't have been removed or that the admin made a poor choice in doing so. The site can deal with situations in any way they see fit. That said depending on the circumstances, taking action may be a courtesy, rather than a strict obligation or expectation.
Obviously when it comes to legality the jurisdiction is law within the host country, which is the minimum standard the site is held to. However if site admins want to go above and beyond, because they feel morally obligated, there's nothing wrong with that either. However as members we really are at the mercy of whomever is making that call in those cases.
