Where is the proof that this random IP has anything to do with The Pirate Bay?

  The IP is what "thepiratebay.se" resolves to. I assume the submitter used the IP address in order to get around DNS-level censorship.

    According to torrentfreak it hasn't propagated for everyone yet. It looks like so the media are linking directly to the ip address.

  In your console, enter: $ traceroute thepiratebay.se Wait until it's done, then compare the last IP with one given here.

    Or just: $ dig +short thepiratebay.se 178.175.135.122
    • comboy 12y ago
      or just: $ host thepiratebay.se (dig requires bind-tools I guess)

    You want to be careful using Tracer T -- that's a hacking tool. http://youtu.be/SXmv8quf_xM http://youtu.be/SXmv8quf_xM

  There is a skull and cross-bones on the flag. I thought they used a cassette tape and cross-bones?

    I think the logo with the cassette tape is (was) for the Swedish Piratbyrån. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piratbyrån https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piratbyrån
