The day they 'almost' caught The Pirate Bay
As you already know, the Swedish authorities won the lawsuit against The Pirate Bay, and the owners were forced to close their website.
Everyone thought that the biggest file sharing website sunk into Davy Jones' locker, but, like Jack Sparrow, these guys surfaced again- this time in a different location.
Good news for the users: The Pirate Bay is now online, and the tracker will be back very soon.
How did the owners manage to resurrect the site so fast? Paranoia, Holy Ghost, or maybe both, because they started taking safety measures back in 2006, in case the authorities decided to act.
In true pirate spirit and inspired by Winston Churchill's speech ("We shall fight on the beaches!"), the owners of Pirate Bay made an announcement:
We have, ourselves, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once more able to defend our Internets, to ride out the storm of war, and to outlive the menace of tyranny, if necessary for years, if necessary alone.
Even though large parts of Internets and many old and famous trackers have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Ifpi and all the odious apparatus of MPAA rule, we shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the ef-nets and darknets, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Internets, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the baywords.org, we shall fight on the /. and on the digg, we shall fight in the courts; we shall never surrender, and if, which I do not for a moment believe, the Internets or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the Anon Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in Cerf's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.
Signed;
The Pirate Bay Crew - Always when needed.
After this magnificent speech, we have to ask ourselves, and our fellow commrades, something crucial. Why is the rum gone?
