And does this web site blocking/cencorship from the corporate dictators (government) actually stop piracy? NO,
does it disrupt copyright infringement ? NO, because since sky sold customers details to that scumbag Andrew crossley ACS law the majority of those who regularly upload /download torrents use a VPN or another method of hiding their IP address
They can block what they like but they will never stop people sharing information, it's what the internet was designed for

All the big Broadband providers do this,virgin media,Sky,Orange,BT thats why i use independent ones

In reference to news.techeye.net/internet/british-isps-block-more-torrent-sites:

A high court order has spurred top ISPs to block three of the largest BitTorrent sites.

BT, Virgin Media, O2 and Be There have all stopped customers from accessing KickassTorrents, H33T and Fenopy after it was claimed in the courts they were facilitating copyright infringement.

The sites were allegedly raking in cash - with revenues estimated for KickassTorrents at around $12,525,469 and $22,383,918, according to an expert quoted in the verdict.

TorrentFreak reports that the High Court ordered six ISPs including BT, Sky, Virgin Media, O2, EE and TalkTalk to block subscriber access to the three torrent sites after the BPI stuck its oar in and moaned that they damaged legal music sales. This is despite evidence from the European Commission that pirates are actually avid content fiends who also pay for their films, TV shows, and music.

Yeah, I know. Point being is that instead of writing "Kick Ass Torrents" they wrote the altogether more rude "Kiss Ass Torrents".

Somebody clearly didn't use the site that wrote that.

I'd been wondering why I couldn't access the site for days!

The sharing of information is ok, it's the illegal sharing of copyrighted data that's not ok.

Granted the locking down of all info' on certain servers maybe overkill but something has to be done otherwise artists wouldn't get their millions for writing trashy songs.

It's not illegal, that's the media brainwashing hype bile, Copyright infringement is a civil matter it isn't a criminal offence in the UK , ...yet

The word "illegal" doesn't just apply to criminal law, you can make an "illegal" chess move without facing jail time.
