You know this.
Are you *really* suggesting that huge publicity in mass media decreases traffic to a piracy site?

All TPB wants is impressions.

So, public prosecutions, or in this case, the UK blocking the site, does nothing to stop piracy, increases traffic to the site and therefore the revenue the site earns and you think this is good because...

Still not one person able to put across a counterpoint to that. You're all just running around saying piracy is bad. Which we all agree with aside from GG, and he is just a mental troll.

So, I double dare you. Create a counterpoint.

"The UK blocking the pirate bay will do nothing to stop piracy, and has without doubt, given the operators substantially more money than before the block. This is good because..."

lolsome.
