TPB is down (Update 3)

Pirate Bay (thepiratebay.org) is down. Anyhow there are some torrent proxies that are still working. As a report by Torrentfreak suggests the torrent site’s outage is likely caused by technical issues. The Pirate Bay’s website currently displays a CloudFlare error message (error 520) with the CDN provider referring to an “unknown error.”

TPB’s website runs a crypto-currency miner (Update 2)

A javascript embedded on the Pirate Bay’s website is using the computer resources of visitors to mine a crypto-currency. The increased CPU usage can harm a visitors hardware in some cases. It is recommended to block Javascript for The Pirate Bay.

Pirates downtimes (Update)

Pirate Bay went down in March 2017 in many parts of the world when internet backbone Cognet blocked Cloudflare’s new IP-addresses for TPB. Pirate Bay proxies such as PirateProxy were affected as well. Some days after the blackout TPB became available again.

TPB is blocked in several countries including the UK, India, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Netherlands and Australia. Anyhow the site remains accessible globally through Pirate Bay proxy sites. Visitors can search, download and contribute torrents for all kinds of content. TPB is available in 35 languages, primarily in English and Swedish.

Pirate Bay torrents are provided as .torrent file download and magnet link.
