The Pirate Bay has been offline for nearly a day following a power outage.

TorrentFreak has been informed that problem can’t be fixed remotely, and the Pirate Bay team is trying to get someone on-site later today.

With a bit of luck the site should come back online in a few hours.

TPB is not the only torrent site that’s having problems at the moment. Yesterday a raid at the Swedish hosting company PRQ took down dozens of file-sharing sites.

PRQ is now back online but not all sites have returned yet. The target of the raid has not been confirmed yet but most people TorrentFreak talked to believe it may be a smaller Swedish tracker.
