What version of code?
What blades do you have enabled?

To block entry to thepiratebay.org via HTTPS, you'll probably need HTTPS Inspection enabled since it uses CloudFlare and, unless you're using R80.30, we can't differentiate one CloudFlare-fronted site from another.
And also Application Control and URL Filtering.
Block P2P File Sharing, which should block the actual torrenting, and the URL Filtering category Illegal / Questionable, which would block visiting the site.

Thanks for your reply,

1. Product version Check Point Gaia R80.10
OS build 462
OS kernel version 2.6.18-92cpx86_64
OS edition 64-bit

2. Application control & Url filtering blades are enabled,

If I enable HTTPS inspection for blocking HTTPS sites, Do we need to install all clients browsers, right?
