1:a april kommer ovanligt tidigt i år...
PRESS RELEASE, NEW PROVIDER FOR TPB

*
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE, 3 MARCH 102, 평양 (PYONGYANG).
The Pirate Bay has been hunted in many countries around the world. Not for illegal activities but being persecuted for beliefs of freedom of information. Today, a new chapter is written in the history of the movement, as well as the history of the internets.
  


A week ago we could reveal that The Pirate Bay was accessed via Norway and Catalonya. The move was to ensure that these countries and regions will get attention to the issues at hand. Today we can reveal that we have been invited by the leader of the republic of Korea, to fight our battles from their network.

This is truly an ironic situation. We have been fighting for a free world, and our opponents are mostly huge corporations from the United States of America, a place where freedom and freedom of speech is said to be held high. A

t the same time, companies from that country is chasing a competitor from other countries, bribing police and lawmakers, threatening political parties and physically hunting people from our crew. And to our help comes a government famous in our part of the world for locking people up for their thoughts and forbidding access to information.

We believe that being offered our virtual asylum in Korea is a first step of this country's changing view of access to information. It's a country opening up and one thing is sure, they do not care about threats like others do. In that way, TPB and Korea might have a special bond.

We will do our best to influence the Korean leaders to also let their own population use our service, and to make sure that we can help improve the situation in any way we can. When someone is reaching out to make things better, it's also ones duty to grab their hand.

RT Mar 5, 2013
It may be one of the world's most reclusive states, but it seems the power of the web is slowly lifting the veils of secrecy on North Korea. Instagram and Twitter are now in North Korea and there are even claims that even Pirate Bay was preparing to drop anchor there. RT's Alexey Yaroshevskiy reports.

Pirate Bay relocates to N. Korea?

RT 2013-03-05The Pirate Bay’s announcement that it has laid down anchor in North Korea may just be a hoax as Europe forces the mutinous bit torrent tracker into choppy waters over the legality of its operations.

After being forced out of Sweden, file-sharing website The Pirate Bay has announced a new and rather surprising location for its servers: North Korea.
The website claimed in a statement published on its blog that Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un had invited it to North Korea.

“This is truly an ironic situation. We have been fighting for a free world, and our opponents are mostly huge corporations from the United States of America, a place where freedom and freedom of speech is said to be held high,”

 The Pirate Bay said. “And to our help comes a government famous in our part of the world for locking people up for their thoughts and forbidding access to information.”
A Pirate Bay insider told website TorrentFreak that they had been working for a while to get connectivity in North Korea.

“We’ve been in talks with them for about two weeks, since they opened access for foreigners to use 3G in the country,” the source said.
Despite TorrentFreak acknowledging that “the site does indeed route through North Korea at the moment," many experts have expressed doubts the report is true.
