ELI5: Why are well-known pirating sites not taken down?

Why are websites like MyFlixer and Soap2Day not taken down, despite it being well known they stream movies illegally?

Probably becuase their servers are spread over several countries. International police cooperation isn't a common thing. Imagine Sony finding out that an illegal stream is offered by a site having their servers in Canada, Mexico, The Netherlands and Russia. They'd need to file law suits in all of these coutries. At the time when they have filed them and the local governments took action against the operator of these servers, the site has been renamed, moved to another location or just deleted that very certain thing Sony was sueing about, causing charges to be dropped in maybe one or two countries. Afterwards they will re-upload it at another URL or make it available under some different name.
