German Cyberbunker decided to disable access to The Pirate Bay

The Hamburg court ordered to disable the hosting service for the famous tracker The Pirate Bay, one of the main hosters of the service. In the case of disobedience, the head of Cyberbunker provider Sven Olaf Kamphos was also obliged to pay a fine for each copyright infringement in the amount of up to 250 thousand euros, and in case of non-payment - imprisonment up to 2 years.

It is important that a precedent now appears, the essence of which is that if they cannot get rid of the service itself, then it is impossible to continue its full or at least partial operation.

The Cyberbunker management itself stated that it was informed about the decision and that it does not see anything criminal in the activities of Pirate Bay, since the service only allows you to search for the BitTorrent protocol. The management also intends to find out how legitimate the ruling is.

Kamphosa also called the largest Disney-type companies "ignorant idiots" because of their content distribution policies and generally called for support for the Pirate Party.

An interesting fact is that the provider is located in the real underground NATO command center of the 50s. CyberBunker is a cramped space of 3 floors of 5,000 cubic meters. And the Internet address of CyberBunker.com is registered on Antarctica.
