In a bid on Auction site eBay, for the site of eBay.com itself, Pirate Bay (TPB) has come out as the official winner.
We saw that eBay was up for sale on their own site and since we have a long going law suit against them for abuse of our trademark name "pirat(ebay)", we wanted to be pragmatic and just use our immense profits to buy them. This will hopefully make us spend less time with the lawsuit.
TPB will use the tools from eBay to make a better rating system for torrents. Then TPB will divide eBay up into smaller companies and sell to the highest bidders. We see no use for an auction site since most stuff is available for free.
eBay.com will in the future be redirected to thepiratebay.org, and hopefully this will put TPB into the top 5 internet sites today.

The Irish airline has created a stir by declaring that it will introduce "child-free flights" by October this year via a press release on their website today.
“When it comes to children we all love our own but would clearly prefer to avoid other people’s little monsters when travelling,” Ryanair spokesman Stephen McNamara said.
“While half our passengers would like us to divide our cabins up into ‘adult’ and ‘family’ areas it is not operationally possible due to our free seating policy, with optional priority boarding.
“However, with clear demand for ‘child free’ flights Ryanair will introduce child free flights on high frequency routes from the start of our winter schedule in October.”

HERE’S a novel twist on traditional mobility aids for the elderly – a skateboard-style Zimmer frame with wheels.
Made from a modified Zimmer, a skateboard deck and polyurethane wheels, the newly unveiled Micro Zimmer looks like something from the latest extreme sport craze.
But it is actually designed for pensioners who want to opt for something a little more speedy than the traditional four-footed frame which is normally more associated with hospitals than pavement-surfing.
British company Micro Scooters, which manufactures the new £100 vehicle, claims it was developed in response to “huge demand” from grandmas and granddads who wanted to take their grandchildren to school, but found they were struggling to keep pace.
