So they've only done a DNS ban then!! How clever. Quick google reveals how to circumvent tbh

Sky have blocked it as well.

My virgin connection blocks this, but my work DSL doesn't

so got static routes for them out over that dsl, and downloads still go over virgin.

Orange BB have also blocked 'normal' way into it.

Janesy B · 8 Jun 2012 at 23:55

I work for a small business ISP and we've had no such request to block access yet.

Unicorn · 8 Jun 2012 at 23:56

VM Blocked us out but there is TONS of ways to get around it, Do some google digging you will find a way

laugh all you want but BE was epic back in the day.

This is such a waste of time and money, as it's so easy to circumvent - it's the music industry sticking it's finger in a tiny hole in the titanic to try and stop it sinking.

What's with the past tense? Be* are still epic.

^That notwithstanding.

There is an IP address you can use to access it directly or use a proxy.

the ISP's don't want to block it they have just been made to, from some outdated dinosaur in court because the music industry is crying care bear tears on top of its millions

Are talk talk supposed to have blocked it? Because I can still get on fine :confused:

Moving to BT Infinity soon and frankly I dont give a damn. Ill use whatever comes up. I use google to do searches and usually the same links are on the bay and KAT.

BT is the first to ban anything. Surely some of the torrents wont work if the block off the site right?

You only need the site to download the torrent file, once you have that, the torrent sites job is done.

No because you can get the tracker links for torrents pretty much anywhere its not like TPB actually hosts the files or is the only place on the internet to get torrent links. Most of the time its one of the first pages to come up in google but usually along with 3-4 other sites that I use that provide exactly the same links. Torrenters arent stupid they spread their links across many sites and because its all P2P its really hard to stop people doing it unlike say Megaupload where everything was centralised.
