The Pirate Bay is back. We are looking forward to a successful completion of the acquisition of The Pirate Bay, one of the world’s top 100 sites,” Pandeya said in a statement. The announcement was published by AktieTorget, a Swedish-based exchange listing Global Gaming Factory’s stock, which has seesawed since the proposal was announced last month.

The developments also come as an Amsterdam court ruled Thursday that The Pirate Bay must cease operations within 10 days in The Netherlands or face millions in fines. Hollywood studios are seeking to have the BitTorrent tracking site — as it now currently operates — shuttered worldwide.
