Don't you mean that you only download from torrents listed by the piratebay? Piratebay doesn't actually host any content at all.
and if so does anyone know of a good encrypted proxy?..
Try Tor, though some operators (myself included I may add) actually block torrents in their exit policies. Too bandwidth hungry.
Gathering all the info possible would help for my lovely telephone call with a bright and bubbly Sky rep tomorrow; So if any of you other poor poor peeps use Sky, can you ping/traceroute tracker.thepiratebay.org for me, and in fact even if you aren't with sky give it a try for me, and let me know your findings.. ya never know maybe it isn't sky but instead a higher power up the line.
The swedish gov forced the upstream provider to block all access to the piratebay in late august. The site moved and cam back on-line, but I guess the cat and mouse will continue for a while. I can reach the webite (piratebay.org on 194.71.107.15) over my Titan (an entanet reseller) line.
