In 2006, fifty-three armed officers raided a Stockholm data center to kill The Pirate Bay. They seized every server, arrested the founders and declared victory. Seventy-two hours later, the site came back online, stronger, faster and impossible to shut down. What began as a bedroom server became the world’s most resilient piracy empire, outliving raids, trials, extraditions and even the imprisonment of its creators. This is the story of the hackers who built something the internet couldn't kill.
