No worries. When one goes down, two more will take its place.
Such is the nature of internet piracy.

Wait...  You mean to tell me that you guys actually care about the most abused and lowest form of online piracy?

Who really gives a damn about torrents anyway?

*Raises hand*

I don't care about it enough to try and defend it, though. Hey, whatever gets me new episodes of Stargate: Atlantis quicker.

The people who are to lazy/cheap/stupid to figure out any other means of piracy, the best of which involve having lots and lots of world-wide connections, which aren't exactly easy to make.

A) How often have you gotten a virus from TPB?

B) If the answer to A is >0 then you are bad at the internet.

Once. I admit TPB is unusually good at keeping virii out. But still, demonoid was the most secure thing around.

They blocked their US search for a while in response to one of the earlier court decisions against them.

Anyway, good news is that Demonoid moved to Ukraine and is now back up and running.

When they blocked their US search they also blocked Canadian IPs.
