Piratebay taken down

[Singlebyte]

Looks like the Swedish police have taken down the PirateBay.  (Most likely temp)

The Pirate Bay’s forum Suprbay.org is also offline. The same goes for Bayimg.com and Pastebay.net.
I hope they can get site up and running ASAP.

I always start my day checking TPB for the latest downloads.

Not happy with this. Really hope this is just temporarily.

Don't know about other torrent clients, but VUZE lets you search from within the client.

EZTV also down, don't know if related.

Google is also removing piratebay apps.

is this temporary or what?

Hopefully it will be fine, otherwise it's a sad step towards furthering Googles control... "Ok I need a torrent, I'll google it now that TPB is gone". Why aren't google's CEO's getting prison time?

Is that a serious question?

Anyway, google is the best site to find file sharing websites, this is how they piss in the people who censors their website:

Probably just temporary, there was already talk about that before, and they saved their as*** once

It is not the first time that PB is taken down.

Usually they are back after some days at most

This is the case and sometimes mirrors in the meantime

Wonder if there are any other annoucements

Piratebay and all the mirrors are still offline. Here is a link to the status of all the mirrors which shows them as all down. https://proxybay.info/
