A few days ago we reported on the arrest of the alleged owner of KickassTorrents and its shutdown by clicking heres. But apparently the file sharing website started working again under a new domain (as usual).
But is it the authentic website?
For the story: The US government arrested the owner of KickassTorrents, the largest website torrent sites στον κόσμο. Ο 30χρονος Ουκρανός συνελήφθη στην Πολωνία σήμερα και κατηγορείται με παραβιάσεις του νόμου περί πνευματικών δικαιωμάτων και ξέπλυμα χρήματος. Επιπλέον, ένα ομοσπονδιακό δικαστήριο στο Σικάγο διέταξε την seizure of the many domains used by KAT.
But let's see what happened:
Σύμφωνα με την ιστοσελίδα The Verge η νέα ιστοσελίδα λειτουργεί κάτω από το KAT.am. Όπως αναφέρει το The Verge η νέα ιστοσελίδα "φιλοξενείται σε πολλαπλούς cloud διακομιστές και χρησιμοποιεί τον πάροχο διαδικτυακής ασφάλειας CloudFlare."
At the moment the page has no torrents.
TorrentFreak on the other says that KickassTorrents are still down but that the community of the famous website remains very active.
Evidence; The members of the management team set up a new site that is currently hosting the KickassTorrents forum in the domain Katcr.co,
As you noticed, perhaps one story overrides the other. The phenomenon is known, and it is commonplace if a big torrent site falls, or a large site in general.
The next moment hundreds of clones appear to try to take advantage of the traffic on the closed page.
So if you are reading on the Internet about the re-emergence of such a site, it is a good idea to try to cross the information.
The strange thing about the above story is that The Verge, although a trusted site says it supports its information on an anonymous source, while TorrentFreak, which is at the center of the torrent sites, does not mention anything about KAT.am.
TorrentFreak reports that none of the mods had access to the files with the source code of the page. So if the story of The Verge is true, some admin should pick up the KAT.am. But he did not invite the other members of the team who are still in the team Katcr.co;
