Pirate Bay Website Taken Offline - User List in Government Hands
Pirate Bay was officially taken offline today and the data center holding the list of everyone who uses it (visitors and members) was handed to the top Governments of those users.

We just received 8 calls this morning at an ISP here in eastern Pennsylvania regarding information based on a large list of IP Addresses.

If you have downloaded from this site please make sure you delete EVERYTHING!

Deleting what's on your computer won't make your data on Pirate Bay's records disappear.

No it won't BUT if and when they do search your home/office computers and they do not find it on there it will look better for you.

Hell you may not even get charged.

Sounds more like the DNS is down
"The world will soon wake up to the reality that everyone is broke and can collect nothing from the bankrupt, who are owed unlimited amounts by the insolvent, who are attempting to make late payments on a bank holiday in the wrong country, with an unacceptable currency, against defaulted collateral, of which nobody is sure who holds title."

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

Ever since mega upload got taken down everyone switched to pirate bay. Lmfao idiots. Get owned. Pirate bay was always more popular, it makes sense that theyd probably help set up a sting Operation to get off the hook.

Columbia Records, HBO, AMC and FBI who called the ISP and I answered to handle their inquiry.

Usually we get two calls a month but this is a large influx, especially for a single day and it's only 10:02 AM.

So I asked AMC guy who called requesting the information why the large influx and he said that Pirate Bay was taken down this morning and they received the records.

"The Pirate Bay is down at the moment, so naturally people start to get worried.

Every time the site goes offline for a few minutes thousands of people start to worry that something awful has happened to their beloved site. Luckily, this is usually not the case.

When the site’s not responding someone probably tripped over a cable, they’re working on software upgrades, replacing hardware or facing another technical difficulty.

TorrentFreak contacted the Pirate Bay team and we were told that the current downtime is cause by a Power Distribution Unit (PDU) failure."

Yes, I rather believe in the word of another torrent site that used REAL CONTACTS than the words of some fearmongering idiot that has no source for the information given.



I think the mods want you to get an even lower "popular image" here by pinning this.

Fail.
