The Pirate Bay

ByBlake

The story behind the all famous, The Pirate Bay, has caused some interest lately. The Pirate Bay is a BitTorrent site that index’s many torrents all over the world. Everything thing from operating systems to games, they have it all. Currently, they are in court fighting for the freedom of indexing these torrents.

The site is frowned apon for hosting small files that allow users to connect to a tracking server. The tracking server holds records for all the users that are downloading (Leaching) and give out (Seeding) the file. The problem with this case is TPB cannot be pined for actually distribution files because there not. Other people on the internet are; average users like you. The chances of this case actually turning in favor of the Hollywood system is very slim. For the full articly please visit NBC.ca.
