Posting links in this forum or on IRC are not illegal, hosting is. That's the situation and we have to face it. I'm convinced we as a community will find a "sane" workaround.
You assuming you have to take responsibility of any random server in the internet that is clearly illegally (again! for those who love to blame me an idiot for allegedly stating the opposite) hosting those blobs is simply silly and arrogant. Don't argue abusing your view of laws where mere Aristotelian logic already fails. And on a sidenote: posting links here in TMO is way less clear to be not illegal than you might think.

And when others (yes that's to you Woody) even ask for the operators of those illegal servers stating their name and address to relieve made up legal threat from HiFo, then I just can't get the desk that would stand the headdesking I feel urged to do.

What you conveniently ignore: there's a possibility to LEGALLY host the blobs:
