People should learn to use urls again, to gain back some control.

  At least we still have url bar in browsers. Most cuts out protocol unfortunately

    I wonder where that removal is in the roadmap :P

      The day it happens be sure to read 229434093 thought leader articles how this is "the right move" and "a step into the future" and other such nonsense.

  But I think the Pirate Bay is unique in that it keeps losing its domain, getting blocked, etc. and Google tends to direct you to the latest working version of it.

    I always thought tpb.org was resilient from getting blocked unlike the .com and other tlds.

    Or you can simply download TorBrowser (https://www.torproject.org/ https://www.torproject.org/) and use that to go directly to (http://uj3wazyk5u4hnvtk.onion/ http://uj3wazyk5u4hnvtk.onion/).

    What I meant is not to search for torrents via google, but go to the website specialized for torrent search and search there. It doesn't really matter how you'll find the website's url in the first place, but don't make the search engine your only entry point to the web.

  It's not always sufficient. For example TPB is blocked in France if you use your ISP's DNS.
  • opless 8y ago
    Blocked on most ISPs in the UK too.

  That's not stopping a slew of proxy websites offering a mirror of the official PirateBay site: https://proxybay.bz https://proxybay.bz https://thepiratebay-proxylist.se https://thepiratebay-proxylist.se https://thepiratebayproxylist.net https://thepiratebayproxylist.net

  TPB is on TOR, just use that. http://uj3wazyk5u4hnvtk.onion/ http://uj3wazyk5u4hnvtk.onion/ I think it was.
