You will no longer be able to see Autocomplete suggestions or use Google Instant when you type in 'The Pirate Bay' in Google. Google started censoring pirate websites back in January 2011 by adding piracy–related search terms to its list of censored search terms. This disables the censored search terms from appearing on Google’s Instant and Autocomplete suggestions. The Pirate Bay’s domains were previously left uncensored, but Google has now added Pirate Bay domains to its censored search terms list too, TorrentFreak reports.The censored search terms list is used by Google to control what it suggests to users. Search terms related to piracy, adult content, sexual organs, censored content, etc. also are part of the list. If you enter 'rapidshare', 'utorrent', 'torrent', etc. in Google’s search box, you won’t see any suggestions.
