First you have to prove the creators of TPB meant their trackers to be used for theft. Which isn't as easy as you might think it is. Torrents aren't inherently "bad", in fact torrent technology is in fact a huge leap forward, and it's whole idea is good.
Secondly, it's not theft. It's copyright infringement.
Lastly. You have to tie the owners of the website with the intent of it's users. Which has been tried hundreds of time in our history. And historically speaking, what a user does on a website does not hold the owners responsible.
