Three days after The Pirate Bay was shut down it came back to life and now Sweden's pirates say they cannot be stopped.Check it out over here.
This is partly because now The Pirate Bay servers have moved abroad. The site's controllers say that they do not even know where they are. At least one server stayed in Sweden and it is in the vaults of a bank in Stockholm, where it is hoped it will remain safe.
The re-location of the servers is all part of the cat and mouse game the site plays with police.
Fredrik Neij and Peter Sunde make up half of team behind The Pirate Bay. Their weapons are standard laptops, hardwired to the net because they do not trust wireless connections.
Fredrik does all the technical stuff: the server maintenance, the upgrading, the hardware and Peter works with the media and does a bit of programming on the site.
Neither one sheds a tear for makers of movies, music and software.
Says Peter: "I think it's okay to copy. They get their money from so many places that the sales is just one small part.
