The torrent
sites which provide a lot of pirate content which is illegal on their sites,
most of these kinds of sites were closed. But the team which worked in kickAss has
created some clone sites to provide the pirate content to its users. And these
sites were hit by massive DDoS attack (DISTRIBUTED DENYL OF SERVICE) and were no
longer working or responding to the traffic.
The famous
sites for pirate content are EXTRA TORRENT and THE PIRATE BAY , though
government and ISP’s denied it’s users accessing these torrent sites ,but the
users can use the torrent services by using proxy’s . moreover you cannot stop
the users to visit the site because who don’t wants the paid stuff for free .
the easiest and only way to stop users from visiting these sites is making the
server crash , shutdown or make the server connections extremely slow such that
no one can access the site this can be done with DDoS attacks.
The extra
torrent site has hit by DDoS attack and was taken down. May be PYRATE BAY was
also hit by this attack but finally these sites are taken down.
