I can't discuss legal issues in detail here, but we can't allow links to 
illegal content on our systems. This means  we have to remove them, if anyone 
is adding such a link.

A second issue is for me that we can't guarantee that the content of a binary 
rpm is really build from the source rpm beside. So any possible bad thing 
could happen when you use (or even only install) it.
