Pirate Bay vows to go underground over blocking threat

File-sharing site The Pirate Bay has said that it will adapt rather than die as it faces legal blocks in the UK.

On Monday the High Court ruled that the site facilitates copyright infringement.

It will decide in June whether ISPs must block UK customers from accessing the site.

In response, The Pirate Bay said it would use other methods for distributing content which would make it harder for its "enemies" to track.

I thought the owners were arrested a long time ago and the site was bought out by a new company.

Hey even the mafia knows not to publish their membership and activities on a site called "organizedcrime.com" or something.

Maybe if they were intent on distributing pirated software and content it might not have been a good idea to call themselves "Pirate Bay". Just a thought really.
