    The Pirate Bay Down? But Not Out

    A few hours ago The Pirate Bay website started to slow down, and eventually it became completely unresponsive. With the trial going on at the moment, the downtime instantly led to all kinds of rumors. However, there is nothing to worry about, the downtime is not related to the trial and people are on their way to bring the site back up.

                        I always wondered if companies did that to them and how often they get attacked.

                          DDOS attacks are probably all the companies can do. Lord knows their court case isn't going as planned. Their evidence that the pirate bay tracker was being used to facilitate illegal downloading? Screenshots. This sort of thing should be a slam dunk. But not with this kind of nonsense.

                          Gottfrid: Before taking the screenshot, did you turn off DHT and Peer Exchange?

                          Mårtensson: DHT was obviously on. I wanted to be like an average user.

                          Gottfrid: So in other words, you can?t check if the tracker was used?

                          Mårtensson: The tracker address was visible on the screen. From that I assumed it was used in some way.

                          Gottfrid: But since you had DHT on, you have no possibility to state to the court as to whether The Pirate Bay?s tracker was actually used or not?

                          Mårtensson: No.

                                    just the web page if anything, the tracker is running fine,
                                    i just downloaded 24 from eztv.it and it was using the pirate bay as the tracker for the torrent.

                                    idiots in the companies don't know what to attack with DDOS.
