Check this out, went to browse TPB and found a message -
"Virgin Media has received an order from the Courts requiring us to prevent access to this site in order to help protect against copyright infringement."

I have a feeling they are not going to stop there..

Fuck Pirate Bay anyway, it's shite lol. Isohunt.com is the way forward for torrenting. :P
Also...the people who own Pirate Bay are vikings.....vikings battered us and stole our gold and raped our women way back when.....FUCK THE VIKINGS!

at this rate isohunt will be down soon too :) now that they have the smell of blood theres no stopping them.
I preferd the layout of TPB, i did use isohunt for awhile but went back to TPB before this shit happened.
If there blocking sites now whats to stop them blocking tor traffic at some stage. (thats if its possible, i believe it would be but not a tech guru so cant confirm.)

Ah if ISOhunt goes I will be sad. I get all my films from there. :(
And yeah you make a valid point man, scary prospect indeed.

To be honest i dont have a lot of faith in it but if it worked it would be awesome.

If they managed to do that that would be fucking awesome.

Isohunt is good. I used to get a lot of my films and music from there, until it was blocked in the U.S. and then I went to demonoid. However, if it DOES get blocked, you can use a proxy to get past it. I did that when it was down in the U.S., , though now it is back up here. You just have to pick a proxy from a country that does not block it.
And yeah you make a valid point man, scary prospect indeed.

Yeah that's why I like living in the U.K. They are slower on the uptake when it comes to blocking torrent sites.
-
Fuck! The great firewall of Europe. This shit starts to look like China! One of these days and we start to have people executed at the stadiums!
I don't give a fuck about TPB anyway, BUT, and this is a big BUT, they start by blocking TPB and then why not ISOhunt and God knows what?

First they came for the communists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left to speak out for me.

You are pretty much spot on DaMan.

- i imagine the record labels are bitching they don't make the millions due to piracy, music and film industry suffering = fair enough but i
don't believe is just down to piracy, think there are a few variables.
- less sales means less profit means less tax, and tax office are missing the millions.

Its been blocked for about a year in Ireland now too, on the largest broadband provider and it wasn't a court order it was a request

Are you talking about TPB or Iso?

Taken from a country where "Blasphemy" and "Heresy" are Constitutional crimes, maybe the Pope requested it, no?

Yup, its already in effect.

Ah well I don't give a fook about TPB tbh, it's always been shit to use IMO. ISO is where it's at.

Demonoid (:
-
Yea, Demonoid and TPB for me. Never cared much for ISOHunt, before I was a fan of Supernova.
I don't know how they think this will possibly stop piracy, everyone will just go back to IRC bots if they have to.

I remember getting my shit from mininova way back when.

You're most likely a descendant of a viking :D Plus, that just means they're bad-the-fuck-ass
-
No matter what they do, they can't fully block it yet. There is few ways of going around the stupid blocks, you can still easily use piratebay. Just a matter of two websites which change ip's etc, I'm not into torrenting much, but I used piratebay lately while it is still blocked.
-
The Pirate Bay is down for me. Is it down for you? It may be, since the site has confirmed it is experiencing “a quite big” Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack. It’s unclear who is behind it.
-
All of the TPB proxies still work to connect to the site, like http://unblockedpiratebay.com
If anonymous is behind this, all I can say is those involved are ass clowns. Pretend like it's hard to ddos a site, with the number of botnets available to them they could do far more useful things but instead they fuck around with anyone who publicly denounces the anonymous namesake.

Pure-blood Celt are we? Pretty rare! Most people are just a stew of indo-european races nowadays.

Not in my area apparently, seems every American born jackass with an SUV has an Irish flag on their back window. I still don't understand it, I don't see people driving around with German or Canadian flags on their windows. Hell, if I was Irish that would be my dirty little secret, like hiding herpes, certainly not advertising it by putting a little herpes flag on my car.

Pretty sure Anon has bigger corporate fish to fry.

Haha almost yeah. Purely decent though, I'm about as English as it gets lol...

I use a fair few different sources for torrents/downloads, I like Filestube which searches Rapidshare/Mediafire type sites for new UK EP's DnB, Dubstep, Grime etc and isohunt, piratebay, and used to use BtJunkie for the more mainstream downloads LP's or films......I find it absolutely pointless to single out thepiratebay.org/se/whateverthefucktheychangeitto.com anyway, It's just another attack as they have failed to fuck them over before, Limewire, KaZaar, Napster, Megaupload....The endless cycle of taking one down, then other one's popping up or a different way to get around it etc...Never ending cat n mouse, much as in the drug game!! ;) saying that though. I guess it serves to forge new paths of exploration and thus, improving the way we get our free shheeeeeeeiiitttt!!

I was basing it off of everyone claiming it was Anon when it happened, but since then TPB came out and said Anon was not behind the attacks. When I put my tin foil hat on, I think it could be a lot of different people, could even be a government agency itself, or very easily could be a Russian group who runs one of the other torrent sites.
Will be interesting to see how this plays out, because TPB has been on top of their game through all this bullshit.
