But in some cases, they are going after people on behalf of cable and
satellite companies. If you download a program in HDTV that has
already shown on TV, what is that?

Its not US law, there are international treaties that most civilized countries

Yes. ANd these international treaties aren't being used. Last I looked
the MPAA was an American organisation, and should have to cooperate with
the foreign equivalent to get things done overseas. This isn't being
done.

I am confused. I though torrent sites could not be shutdown. Because
most were legit sites. (However, I can't even find good search
site.)
