PRESS RELEASE, NEW PROVIDER FOR TPB

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE, 3 MARCH 102, íʼn양 (PYONGYANG).

The Pirate Bay has been hunted in many countries around the world. Not for
illegal activities but being persecuted for beliefs of freedom of information.
Today, a new chapter is written in the history of the movement, as well as the
history of the internets.

A week ago we could reveal that The Pirate Bay was accessed via Norway and
Catalonya. The move was to ensure that these countries and regions will get
attention to the issues at hand. Today we can reveal that we have been invited
by the leader of the republic of Korea, to fight our battles from their
network.

This is truly an ironic situation. We have been fighting for a free world, and
our opponents are mostly huge corporations from the United States of America, a
place where freedom and freedom of speech is said to be held high. At the same
time, companies from that country is chasing a competitor from other countries,
bribing police and lawmakers, threatening political parties and physically
hunting people from our crew. And to our help comes a government famous in our
part of the world for locking people up for their thoughts and forbidding
access to information.

We believe that being offered our virtual asylum in Korea is a first step of
this country's changing view of access to information. It's a country opening
up and one thing is sure, they do not care about threats like others do. In
that way, TPB and Korea might have a special bond. We will do our best to
influence the Korean leaders to also let their own population use our service,
and to make sure that we can help improve the situation in any way we can. When
someone is reaching out to make things better, it's also ones duty to grab
their hand.
