The Pirate Bay, the infamous torrent tracker site has ended all specualtion and officially announced its latest project, a YouTube-esque video streaming site without any censorship.
The Pirate Bay Blog had this to say:

Oh, and the surprise that's coming... it's still not what people think it is... it's been speculations on it being Playble.com or the video somewhat secret video site.
But, as a treat I can tell you - YES - we're going to do a video streaming site. It's true. It's in the works being done right now and as usual we put a bit of Pirate Bay mentality behind every project we do.

The new site will be at thevideobay.org and a TPB admin has confirmed that they tested streams on Eurovision a while back with "no problems whatsoever".
The site will have user generated content, and will have no censorship. They added also that the community had the option to censor but that the admins would not censor anything.
"We're going for a free system, with a solution to not care so much about copyright but still not breaking laws," he said. "We're not revolutionizing the world, we're taking it just a small step further,"
added the admin.
More updates as they become available.
