They made it out like they were really bringing KAT back, but it's been a pile of shit for months with no changes. The site is so dysfunctional and buggy. Nothing works right. At the very least remove the front page because any search made there only welcomes you with an error. What's the deal?
Now that the pirate bay is essentially dead there doesn't really seem to be too many options available now... I can still access the pirate bay through Brazil but I'd give it a week before that ceases to work too. Even then, most of my favorite shows have several episodes missing for download that are abundant on KAT. I hope they get their shit together because as it is, Piracy is on its the last leg here...

Please search 'OfflineBay' in this very forum; it's a workaround for when TPB is unavailable. There're other options but I believe users will have to get a more 'DIY' approach if we want to keep up file sharing. This will be good for the community in the end, as the widespread torrent scenario was 'too comfy'.
Kat is not under TPB's control, so whatever the guys running (or ruining) it do, it's a desperate attempt by a few volunteers that authorities will be glad to put down. I suppose they couldn't afford all the security to run such a site, it's a risky business.

The KAT that has been resurrected is ok, but in my opinion it is the people that are missing.
Try TPB through TOR.

Maybe. I've had some trouble with it, maybe it's on my side but it feels kinda broken: katcr.co.

Any site that pretends to be KAT or EZTV or YIFY is run by scammers/fraudsters.
KAT ended when Atrim Valium or whatever his name is got arrested.
There is plenty of (EASILY SEARCHABLE) info on this. Anyone using anything claiming to be these three sites is either a n00b or a moron.

katcr.co is run by the old staff after original owner of kat.cr was arrested, it's not a scam but it lacks coders and $$$, that's why after many months of "functioning" it still looks like some alpha testing project.
I wouldn't say it's scam just because it changed owner, TPB has similar story if I'm not wrong(?)
In the meantime scammers put a bunch of working and nice looking copies of original kat.cr putting even more shame on them.
Anyway, TPB is far from being dead, like the saying, ...if I got a dime for every time TPB was "dead"...
I can only imagine how hard it is to stay afloat for TPB with all the technical problems of "regular" sites while the copyright armies constantly forcing it doors and putting blockades on all roads that lead to this place.
Interestingly icefilms.info got 522 as well from this morning, could be related...

It looks like discrutled KAT members are making their way to TorrentGalaxy. It is quite a nice site run by former ET people. Some members after joining TGx were striped of all KAT privledges for doing so (read the forum). That said, In my opinion if you are just looking for the latest torrents I would recommend https://ettv.tv

Not sure why anyone would want to go back, even if it was the old KAT. KAT was famous for deleting my uploads in "compliance" with the DMCA.

TPB is heaven for you then, as they are not scared by the US law.
