The Pirate Bay's .se domains ordered to be seized by Stockholm's district court due to a motion by F - Polidicks

[url]http://torrentfreak.com/key-pirate-bay-domains-must-be-seized-court-rules-150519/[/url] [quote=TorrentFreak]In a decision handed down minutes ago the Stockholm District Court has ordered two key domains owned by The Pirate Bay to be seized. While the ruling means that the site will lose its famous ThePirateBay.se domain, don't expect the site to simply disappear. TPB informs TorrentFreak that they have plenty more domains left in store. In keeping with a global strategy to disrupt the operations of unauthorized file-sharing sites by attacking their infrastructure, Swedish authorities have been eying two domains operated by the notorious Pirate Bay. In 2013, Prosecutor Fredrik Ingblad, the man behind the operation that took the site down in December, filed a motion targeting ThePirateBay.se (the site’s main domain) and PirateBay.se (a lesser used alternative).[/quote]

And so we move to another domain and thirty more Pirate Bay clones and backup sites spring up just in case, just another Tuesday for the Pirate Bay.

Yep, keep wasting money to take down this sites, I'm sure this will get people buying your products.

The owners have had a clone up since 90 minutes after it got taken down Look at the top comment on the post on reddit [url]https://www.reddit.com/r/worldnews/comments/36h4ks/thepiratebayse_and_piratebayse_have_been_seized/[/url]

With all these new top-level domains they have hundreds of new options [url]www.thepiratebay.coffee[/url]

And just a few days ago this was posted, when are they going to learn that it's not going to change ANYTHING [url]https://torrentfreak.com/shutting-down-pirate-sites-is-ineffective-european-commission-finds-150514/[/url]

As long as their short-sighted mind thinks killing the domain will solve anything, [I][B]my friends[/B][/I] will be able to pirate stuff as always, just changing a few letters in the address bar. Being this VS they catching up and inventing a more effective strategy (that will not help the cusomer ofc)...

As long as there's methods to share files online piracy will NEVER die. When will these morons learn that.

Things that are accessible for free, and at leisure will always be better than forking out money and going to get it elsewhere. I'm sorry, but with the cost of living rising every single fucking day it seems, it's to be expected that people praise sites like TPB, and others.

Nice.

and once all the domains are used, they'll use www(.)thebayofpirates(.)ws

[QUOTE=BuffaloBill;47756716]No. He's saying that that bussiness model WILL always be the more attractive choice especially when games/movies/series etc become more expensive every generation.[/QUOTE] But they aren't becoming "more expensive every generation". Consoles themselves are now significantly cheaper when compared to their older incarnations; [t]http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2013/06/arstechnicalaunchgraph.png[/t] Games? Games are also now significantly cheaper for the end user for much the same reason. The prices look bigger today because the numbers are bigger, but the average income is also higher, and the currency of choice may be worth less overall. The bigger number doesn't mean the price is actually higher. (also be thankful we moved off of cartridges, those fuckers were costly)

[QUOTE=InvaderNouga;47757053]"I can't afford something so I'm just going to take it for free"[/QUOTE] It is pretty much given to me so yeah, why not? Times are tough and if you are low on money it's stupid to not take advantage of such opportunities.

The new Piratebay Logo is great [img]https://thepiratebay.vg/static/doodles/thepiratebay_hyd.jpg[/img]

Is that an Hydra? That is really clever.

But when there are people like you basically saying you could pay, but refuse to as long as you can get it for free, and don't seem to care that you're using the same reasoning as shoplifters, it's not hard to see why big media is trying to prevent piracy rather than somehow compete with it.

[QUOTE=BuffaloBill;47756452]As long as there's methods to share files online piracy will NEVER die. When will these morons learn that.[/QUOTE] Shit, people will use dead drops before stop pirating.

[QUOTE=InvaderNouga;47757053]"I can't afford something so I'm just going to take it for free"[/QUOTE] If you don't have the money to pay for it anyway, and you aren't causing monetary or other damages to the company by not paying, then where is the issue?

[QUOTE=InvaderNouga;47756817]Entitlement[/QUOTE] I don't see how the fact of having a right to something is relevant in a situation where you don't in fact have a right to something but there's so much bullshit related to getting something legally that in some cases it's easier, and even safer to get it illegally.
