I know someone who works at a expert computer business or whatever (not important) and they say that cogeco detects that you are using the pirate bay and shuts down your internet. I don't know how it works, the person doesn't know how it works either. I was just told that it shuts down your internet, I need someone to respond to this-quickly.
The Pirate Bay is still currently in operation and has only ever been temporarily shut down. The temporary shut down was court ordered until the claims against The Pirate Bay had been settled.
Yup

There have been a few BIT Torrent sites shut down in the last few years. Some of those shut down include 'The Pirate Bay', 'Mega Upload' and 'Torrent Freak'.
No, it's not.
The Pirate Bay uses the BitTorrent protocol. It has magnet links to torrent files for peer-to-peer sharing. BitTorrent is among the most common protocols for file sharing on the internet.
The Pirate Bay is free...
The base at Guantanamo Bay isn't being closed down, just the prison.
Pirate Bay uses BitTorrent protocol and tracks files for sharing over the internet. It is a free service and claims to be uncensored. They do ask that you don't share inappropriate content and do not violate the privacy of others.
the abattoir opened in 1913 and shut down in 1988.
Who knew that the UK had blocked the pirate bay site? If you want to get a legal alternative you can download the Canadian IOS Hunt and this will enable you to go to the Pirate Bay site.
