Pirate Bay has been under the gun and it seems that even with the help of a Stockholm court torrent file sharing is a big mess that looks impossible to clean up.

After seeing their domain seized by the courts, that did not stop Pirate Bay from going back online via another domain with a new logo to boot. This was not the first time that Pirate Bay has been put on the hot seat and it seems that such a cycle will continue going forth.

Hence, the fight continues and now Pirate Bay and other torrent sites like Kickass are under prosecution. Leading the campaign are the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) and Entertainment Software Association (ESA) with The Coalition for Online Accountability (COA) who have so far made headway.

But the real question is will their cause really put a stop to online piracy?

Despite their valiant efforts, many feel that such seem close to impossible right now. They have been dealing setbacks by taking down sites but the fact is that the people behind these torrent hosting sites are able to come up with resolutions as fast as they were shut down.

Blocking the sites thus becomes a temporary reprieve but a permanent shutdown seems impossible to think. In fact, according to Movie Tech Geeks, a site like KickAss has been ranking pretty well via Alexa (87), sort of sending a message that all these efforts are only temporary.

Will there ever be a permanent solution? If that were to be answered now, the immediate answer is a big NO. One day perhaps but with new and better approach could be good.

It thus becomes a cat and mouse game between the different organizations and the torrent sites right now and unless a perfect trap is laid out, a dent towards the online piracy issue is likely to take more time before it actually happens.
