The Pirate Bay, A Year After The Verdict

Long Live The Pirate Bay! FOR4EVA!

R.I.P. PirateBay
It has now been shut down. What a shame...

Edit: And as soon as I post this it comes back up...for how long? Who knows...?

Have you considered the possibility their server went down for a small while rather than being shut down? :P

:lol:

Anon does have a point. Make sure that you always research before claiming something. ;)

Yeah, I did. Have you considered learning how to read? Notice, I edited my reply, not even 5 minutes after posting it. And it will most likely be shut down for good in the near future...

@Slickerey
How exactly would you go about researching that, smart guy?

Agreed. Why they don't get that every time a website is shutdown, another just comes up in its place. It's like when Napster disappeared... Limewire, Kazaa... they all took its place. If PirateBay dies, there's plenty of other sites for those 5 million people to migrate to.

Normal leechers won't get in trouble. It is unclear whether or not it is illegal in the first place, and even if it is illegal, the chance for you to get caught is too small. Besides that, the people who try to prevent piracy know themselves that it is no use to slowly try and catch every individual. This is not what they are trying.
