The Pirate Bay offline. Again.
p2pnet news view Freedom | P2P:- The last time The Pirate Bay crashed — that was 11 days ago — anyone who tried to log on saw the image on the right.
It went down again today. But this time there was no message.
Is the second down in less than two weeks an indication of things to come under the new management?
It’s now online again. So what happened this time? There’s no explanation.
Meanwhile, as p2pnet reported a little while ago, there’s a The Pirate Bay clone for people to play with and obviously, while the site was offline there was no way of accessing the doppelganger.
No worries, though. Even if this is the start of a trend, there’s now an alternative URL for the clone torrent on MiniNova.

Stay tuned.
(Thanks again, TPB)

I’m waiting for the new “piratebay.ru” site, based off the clone.
