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.'"

If this were true they would have sent Seal Team Six after me instead of Bin Laden.
