A new scope set to be included in Ubuntu by default will allow users
of The Pirate Bay to conduct BitTorrent searches directly from Unity
desktop. The tool’s creator informs TorrentFreak that while there is
still work to be done, the aim of the scope – which is endorsed by
Canonical founder Mark Shuttleworth – is to embed Free Culture directly
into the Ubuntu user experience.
In early December 2013 there was a nice announcement for Ubuntu users. Software developer David Callé revealed that a new torrent scope (search addon) for the Debian-based Linux OS was now available.
In the first instance Callé was skeptical about having the scope
included in Ubuntu by default since it would inevitably turn up
unlicensed content, something he feared would “generate a lot of FUD for
Ubuntu.” However, Callé’s fears were quickly addressed by Ubuntu
founder Mark Shuttleworth.
