As The Pirate Bay strives to rise from the grave and breathe again, another prime torrent tank became a target of another takedown. Massively popular file sharing hub KickassTorrents was kicked out of the Web on Monday when authorities seized its domain kickass.so. Quick moving, the mammoth download bedrock moved back to its old digs at kickass.to to stay online. 

The sequestered domain is of Somalia and the download site has been using that one since November last year. On Feb. 9, users who accessed its top level domain were welcomed with error messages. It was later discovered that one of the largest torrent vessels around was banned. Realizing the confiscation, KickassTorrents relocated to its past Tongan domain and it is worth noting that the transfer was impressively nippy. 

It is said that copyright holders have attempted to dislocate the service, in the hopes of flushing out the biggest download site from the Web. The Somalian address is deemed safe by administrators of the site and its requisition was surmised as the response of authorities to grumbles from license owners. 

KickassTorrents is the carrier of an overwhelmingly cosmic collection of downloadable files, making it the most picked on site among torrent hubs. Since its inception seven years ago, the torrent site has grown to be the central source of download files on the Internet. As KickassTorrents gained its spiraling popularity over the years, the site has reeled in millions of users and "pirates" that visit it every day. 

Back on Feb. 1, The Pirate Bay went back online after its two month-long absence as a result of a raid conducted by Swedish authorities. Another torrent borough known as Isohunt even made efforts to preserve its rich database. KickassTorrents, on the other hand, was the speedier one to reappear, popping up within hours after its almost unnoticed downtime.
