"The Pirate Bay, one of the most popular sites for file sharing, once again thwarted authorities trying to shut it down.

After briefly disappearing because its Caribbean domain name, thepiratebay.sx, was seized by authorities, the site popped back into action on thepiratebay.ac, according to The Verge and originally reported by Torrent Freak.

The ?.ac? is the country code, top-level domain of an isolated volcanic island almost 1,000 miles from the coast of Africa in the Atlantic Ocean, called Ascension Island.

This is the fourth domain that The Pirate Bay has had to switch to in 2013 to avoid being shut down for violating copyright.

And the game of cat and mouse isn?t over yet.

Sources from The Pirate Bay told Torrent Freak that because Ascension Island has links to the UK, the site won?t be safe for long. It plans to use thepiratebay.ac only temporarily before switching to the Peruvian ?.pe?. And, if that doesn?t last, the infamous torrent site assured Torrent Freak that it has dozens of domain names on reserve."
