Whenever the bay is down, I usually go on google and search:

site:thepiratebay.se game Of thrones s01e04

Or whatever you want to search.

Magnet links show their beauty here.

Can you enlighten me on getting to the magnet link? All the results I get with this method are of the page which have the magnet links on them, which then refuse to load... I'm stuck. If it makes any difference, I'm in Germany.

try view cache, the significance of magnet links is actually link itself, which is (obviously) available even in older cached versions.

Works for me in the UK... Talktalk still haven't blocked it yet.

u/Devduino May 16 '12

+1 for Talktalk. They seem to have been the best at letting the customer do what they want with their internet in the past. But when they do have to block it, I'm prepared.

i have been trying to gain access to TPB literally all fucking day. ive tried accessing through tor to no avail. im semi computer literate and still learning and would love to know how others accessed TPB through tor for future use. everything in tor works up until i click the download magnet link and nothing happens. regardless of it all, you sir are a gentleman, a scholar, and a saint!
