Unfortunately, Sealand is not an option anymore, because His Royal Highness Prince Michael of Sealand does not want to sell it to the Pirate Bay. But most of the Sealand alternatives would probably not even have the capacity to keep a site like The Pirate Bay in the air, so it’s wise to stay in Sweden.
