Agreed but we do still have pirate bay
TPB is a long since sold and sold out third party joke of what it once was. Moreover, Iceland, Sweden, whatever for TPB itself... it never protected users, because torrenting protocol the clearnet cannot protect users. For that, torrenters MUST rehome themselves exclusively to the darknets. I2P and Phantom and even Tor and so forth would work reasonably well for that against corporate MAFIAA attacks. But torrenters are stupid. And it is the role of cpunks to provide designs for such capable darknets.
and the drug pushing parasites
Yes, on I2P and Tor, lol. But note, save maybe openbazaar P2P alikes, people are vain, so real P2P is not popular for them to do as it removes their fame and control via their would be central sevices. This is why real P2P hasn't taken off. Imagine a truly P2P Uber / Lyft... it doesn't exist because everyone who thinks it up wants a cut, at which point they are middlemen and not true [anon] P2P.
Icelandic servers have a base of security because of the structure of law
Blah blah blah. How many and which treaties and partnerships, both front and backdoor and silent, are Iceland's Government and country party to? How strong is your adversary? Oh, now you have a problem once you strip off the Iceland publicity bullshit. If Iceland were something special you'd see them openly advertising forbidden hosting, not necessarily for themselves, but for foreigners. And if it were a free country internally, they'd advertise it for themselves. Silly laws, and mores. Ain't no bases there.
Legal shit has ramifications
Real independant legal shit is seriously fucking hard to achieve.

Cryptome is a unique character worthy of respect and dialogue should you have the chance. An honor it would be in fact. While the technicals of cryptome.org and its parentage could perhaps make use of review. On the other hand, they are uniquely Cryptome.
Lol.
