What is KickassTorrents and Why Can’t I Access It?
This article has been just updated:
At one time, KickassTorrents (KAT) was the most visited torrent site on the web, bypassing the enormously popular Pirate Bay. The site was started in 2008 and reached its pinnacle in 2014. It went offline for a while in 2016 but has been revived by some of its former staff members.
You might have been a visitor to the site if you use torrent files to access online content. Torrent files give you the means to download newly released movies, music, television shows, ebooks, and software. You access and download the content through a peer-to-peer connection. The files can be large depending on the type of content you are downloading.

Why Do They Block Sites Like KickassTorrents?
Cmon, you think no one cares about all that copyrighted material being downloaded for free? Someone would like to get paid for creating that content, and they have powerful connections in business and politics. Access to KAT may be blocked by the government based on the location in which you live. Maybe there are stringent copyright laws that are being enforced by your ISP.
Sometimes an ISP may block access since they know that you will be using substantial bandwidth to download your content. A frustrating aspect of torrent sites is that they sometimes just suddenly seem to disappear or become unreachable.
What Can I Do When They Block it or Take it Down?
Relax, pour yourself a tall, cold one, and find a way to defeat the blockade being perpetrated on your online activity. Download a VPN and start spoofing your location to a country which allows you to access all the torrents that your heart desires. Hide your IP from your ISP so they can’t throttle your download speed.
Another route that can help you get to KickassTorrents if the site is down is to search the web for mirror or proxy sites that replicate all of the content that you wish to download. You should be able to use one of these methods to get around any roadblocks that are put up to discourage your torrenting.
