THEHYDRABAY.NET dates back to May 21, 2012; its registration is valid until May 21, 2015. That makes the domain about 14 years old. 1 API GMBH (IANA ID 1387) manages the name, which is past its expiry date at the moment. Its record is locked against unauthorised transfer. The registrant is listed in SWEDEN. Its nameservers are ns0.thepiratebay.org, ns5.thepiratebay.sh, ns9.thepiratebay.tw and nsa.thepiratebay.vc. Nameservers decide where a domain's DNS is hosted, so a change of nameservers usually means the website or email moved to a new provider. Renewals are usually made for one to ten years at a time, so an expiry date far in the future shows a long-term commitment to the name. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself. The creation date shows when the name was first registered, while the expiry date shows how long the current registration has been paid for. Domains that are not renewed before their expiry date normally enter a grace and redemption period before they can be registered again. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry.
