The Pirate Bay Is 10 Years Old: 'We Really Didn't Think We'd Make It This Far'

Posted by timothy on Friday August 9, 2013 @11:58AM from the came-along-at-the-right-time dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The Pirate Bay, arguably the most resilient file sharing website, was first founded on August 9, 2003, although it didn't launch until September 15, 2003. Nevertheless, the group considers the former date to be its start, so today The Pirate Bay is 10 years old. From their blog: 'We really didn't think we'd make it this far. Not because of cops, mafiaa or corrupt politicians. But because we thought that we'd eventually be to old for this shit. But hey, running this ship makes us feel young.'"

It isn't stealing. When I steal, you don't have what I took from you
Idiots like you need to be beaten senseless and left for vultures to eat.
If everyone doesn't pay for books, music, etc. then the artists will get NO PAY.
Do you work for NO PAY, you sorry brain-dead logic-bankrupt piece of subhuman
waste ? No, you don't, because if you did you would be starving and homeless.
Your logic is BULLSHIT.
My logic is based on reality.
