Re: [Staffslug] ISP Censorship - The Pirate Bay
Hi Andy,
I suppose it is the Government that I'm angry at... its a bit like shoot
the messenger!
To anyone who doesn't know how to get round it... it can be as simple as
changing your DNS servers to Google/OpenDNS... or you might want to try a
web proxy or vpn like btguard. Might not be relevant now but I personally
fear that if they get away with blocking one website, they'll get
comfortable doing it.

Most of these ISPs are obeying court orders. They have no choice but
to obey it. A few of them gave quite vigorous defence in court in an
attempt to avoid having to do this, so rather than complaining about
the ISPs it is better to complain about and to the government.
Cheers,
Andy
