A few days ago TorrentFreak reported that an anonymous user of The Pirate Bay had managed to copy the entire site and upload it as a torrent. Now the inevitable has happened – a working copy of the world’s most infamous torrent site is already up and running, created from the files downloaded from the backup torrent.

Four days ago TorrentFreak broke the news that a copy of The Pirate Bay’s entire site was being shared, somewhat appropriately, on The Pirate Bay.

The 21.3 Gigabyte torrent was created by anonymous reader who told us: “I suppose I want us to have assurances. If the TPB deal disappoints us, we can just put it up again.”

His work was well appreciated. Dozens of other publications picked up on the story and now there are many hundreds of seeds and leechers on the torrent.
