A number of proxy servers of The Pirate Bay (TPB) have sprung up following wide DNS-based and other blocking of the website by various legal bodies in countries blocking access to The Pirate Bay. Such proxies have been set up by political parties such as the Pirate Party UK as well as private persons. In addition to being shown to be not effective, the blocking of TPB and proxy servers has been regarded by some as censorship. On the first day of one of the UK court ordered block traffic to the site increased by 12 million visitors.

Some proxies have been blocked or shut down due to legal pressure. Others have shut down because of the financial risk of prolonged legal battles.

One type of attack has created proxies on victims servers, such as that of the Argentine Chamber of Phonograms and Videograms Producers website.
