BBC News - Pirate Bay proxy gets shut down after music industry legal threat

Published by

A site offering a workaround to reach a banned piracy site has been shut down after threats of legal action from the music industry.

Minor political group the Pirate Party UK launched the proxy earlier this year ahead of a High Court order blocking The Pirate Bay site.

The British Phonographic Industry (BPI) threatened legal action if the proxy was not removed.

The group has now said such proceedings should no longer be necessary.
