Only a day after the biggest torrent site The Pirate Bay moved its domain to Guyana, it was informed of being “suspended immediately” there. TPB then chose its next destination to be .se, which it left in the first place following legal threats.

The Pirate Bay chose Guyana’s .gy top-level domain as a temporary safe haven late Wednesday after their .pe (Peru) domain was suspended without warning. However, the Internet buccaneers were not welcome in Guyana either, with thepiratebay.gy becoming unavailable within a day.



According to TorrentFreak, which contacted the local GY registry, the domain name was brought down without any specific reason just because it “violated” its policies.



“Once a site violates our policies, it will be suspended,” the registry said in a statement, possibly referring to copyrighted materials linking issue listed in its policy.



With a fourth domain change in less than two weeks, The Pirate Bay has then decided to move its site back home to Sweden.



It appears to be a tactical move by the Pirate Bay team, as it is exactly the threat of domain seizure at home that made them start hopping between domains.



The domain trouble started in April when Swedish prosecutor Fredrik Ingblad filed a motion at a Stockholm court against The Pirate Bay on behalf of several major movie, music and publishing companies. The complaint linked “widespread copyright infringement” to TPB’s then-used sites/domain names, claiming that they are “used to assist in connection with crime” and requesting their seizure.



What may still keep the evasive BitTorrent site afloat in Sweden for a while is that .se domain registry’s policy of not suspending a domain name until getting a court order.



But despite the recent chaotic voyage between the North Atlantic, the Caribbean, the Pacific and the South Atlantic, the Pirate Bay crew has been making statements saying they are not overly concerned with their “world tour.”



The Pirate Bay has recently announced it is working on an upgrade for its PirateBrowser, which will make domain names completely “irrelevant,” while allowing downloading and sharing files through a “perfectly legal” piece of software with decentralized hosting.



The group added on its Twitter that it also has “70 domains to go” to keep the site online.

Internet search giant Google has seemingly given up on tracing the moves of TPB, listing its alternative, redirecting domain thepiratebay.org on top of the search list.



The Pirate Bay’s latest journey began on December 10 when it lost its .sx domain in Sint Maarten following pressure from the anti-piracy outfit BREIN. It comes amid ongoing hacking trial against one of TPB’s founders, Gottfrid Svartholm Warg (Anakata), who was on Wednesday extended his custody until at least January 8 by a decision of a Danish court.
