Other of the P2P giants, Torrentz does not say goodbye

Torrentz

In less than a month we are seeing how little by little some of the most important P2P pages are lowering the blind. A few weeks ago we informed you of the KickAss Torrent closure, following arrest of owner in Poland, thanks to the information that Apple had provided. In these types of cases, it is logical that the website quickly stops working as was the case.

But today we are talking about the closure of another website, Torrentz, which has caught the entire community by surprise, without any warning. Torrentz, which hit the market even before The Pirate Bay had become one of the best alternatives after KickAss Torrent, as it was a Google-style search engine, displaying only a search box on its home page.

Like KickAss Torrent and most, if not all torrent pages, it does not store any type of files that could cause it to be the subject of copyright lawsuits. But despite not hosting these types of files, has always been in the eye of the hurricane and has been the subject of different complaints, divided equally between the United States and the United Kingdom. It was then that Torrentz began to change domain trying to avoid the controls of the European and American authorities.

It seems that the owners or the owner of Torrentz has seen that this type of activity can lead to jail and instead of selling the service to other websites (something very common in recent years) has decided to definitely lower the blind. It is more than likely that you have received some kind of threat from a government and have opted for the fast track, lower the blind and dedicate yourself to something else. Despite the search box being enabled, if we try to perform a search, the web will offer us the following result: «Torrentz will always love you. Farewell ».
