Pirate Bay Finds Safe Haven in Iceland, Switches to .IS Domain
After The Pirate Bay’s new Greenland-based domains were suspended earlier this month, the world’s largest file-sharing site has found a safe haven in Iceland. From now on TPB can be reached via ThePirateBay.is without the imminent threat of another domain suspension. The Icelandic registry informs TorrentFreak that they will not take action against the domain unless a court order requires them to do so.
It has been a busy month for The Pirate Bay’s IT department thus far, with the site skipping from domain to domain.
Two weeks ago the notorious BitTorrent site traded in its .SE domain for the Greenland-based .GL TLD. The Pirate Bay took this decision because they feared that Swedish authorities were about to take over their domain names.
However, TPB did not receive a warm welcome in Greenland.
Within two days of the move The Pirate Bay lost both its .GL domain names. Tele-Post, the private company responsible for .GL registrations, did not wait for a court order and said it would not allow the domains to be put to “illegal” use.
Resilient as always, TPB aren’t about to give up that easily and have already lined up yet another domain name. This time they’re going for Iceland’s .IS TLD, which will be a little harder to take offline.

...to do audio and video work. (Yes, it's a $4400.00 unit). If strangers complain that "They should buy their own stuff" ...I tell them to kiss my ass.
Same goes for music. Musicians and former working Musicians...like myself...never made shit from the recording industry, ...and Yes, I was on a hit record..no, don't ask (sorry)...anyway, live performing is where I made the money...not the vulture recording companies.
Those sons-a-bitches made sure of that.
