However only two months after the gigantically prevalent record offering webpage moved from its kickass.to location to kickass.so, the group has needed to about-face to its past area – after kickass.so was "banned" from the web by its registry.
Emulating the takedown of The Pirate Bay in December (and taking after suspicions that the restored website may be under observation), Kickass turned into the greatest torrent-pursuit webpage on the web, overhauling a huge number of guests consistently.
As a feature of what it said was a yearly space move, and taking after Google's new against robbery instruments which brought on a gigantic drop in its activity, the gathering chose to head to Somalia's .so and make utilization of its promptly accessible nation code top-level area name (ccTLD).
What Kickass didn't understand is that while Somalia is an uncivilized backwater, the dab so registry backend is controlled by Japanese organization GMO Registry.
GMO Registry is a piece of the tremendous GMO Internet gathering along these lines about as a long way from the ineffectively working Somali government as you can get. It took a couple of months, yet the area has been seized, and Kickass has been compelled to backtrack to kickass.to, which as of now has 1.7 million blocking solicitations against it.
Importance nameservers can't resolve the area to an IP address, so no all the more seeking, downloading and pilfering of copyrighted stuff for you – unless you know the IP or can discover an alternate document offering webpage, of which endless exist.
Anyhow it simply goes to show: things online are not generally as they show up in this present reality
