On 9th of December 2014, the famous torrent site was raided by the Swedish Police. Most of the torrent community were shocked by the raid.
You can take down Pirate Bay, but you can’t kill the Internet it created
We had a crackdown on a server room in Greater Stockholm because of a copyright infringement, and yes it was Pirate Bay,” Paul Pinter, national coordinator, intellectual property crime at Stockholm County Police told Reuters.
While the community are shaken up, Pirate Bay co-founder Peter Sunde celebrates as he says that it “Feels good”.
He also mentioned that the new group who took over did not maintain the site and that site had many bugs and was “ugly”.
But today the site has been resurrected the ISOHUNT team, the site is back up at http://oldpiratebay.org/
At the moment, site seems much cleaner without ads, but this could possibly change soon.
Can you stop pirates? Not like this, lower the prices down and I’m sure it will be minimize.
