The site responds to pings, though, that means it is alive. My guess is the web server must be down, and no one is there to restart it. Of course you do not a tracker to download torrents, but you need to *have* the torrent to get the files. So, if the trackers are down, how are we going to find the torrents, or make them available to others? Anyone knows of an alternative for this? The information must be allowed to be shared. When they manage to shut down the flow of information, they will manage to keep us in the dark. We are scattered all over the world, we must find a way to communicate with eachother. They are ready to make their final moves. Who knows how much time we still have? TPB website is down for 2 days now. The site responds to pings, though, that means it is alive.

Sooooooooo I guess either things changed quicker than the news came out or the news or IFPI or someone are just not up to speed :p Either way, hosting is as interchangeable as underwear, how will sending empty threats out to random hosts help close a site? They'll just relocate. Someone eventually will take the business, it's just a php based, search front-end having database of metadata anyhow..it's nothing illegal per se, it's just lobbyism pushing legal interpretation towards that. It's like saying even a cafe that has only mafioso as guests is illegal in itself, despite only serving coffee and bagels..bit silly. “DCP can’t take down TB because TB isn’t hosted on/at DCP”.
