Oh My File Sharing Lord!

How is this possible? That can't be completely true! I don't know the UK that well but their government blocking a website because of a court decision looks odd. Even if there are many lobbies favoring this decision.

It says in OPs quote: "In only the second case of its kind". What was the first?

No worries. There are hundreds of sites like that, and I doubt that they will close all of them.

I wonder how long until "PirateBayProxy.com" or something like that comes up

Best thing to do in a situation like this, i also live in the UK and PirateBay is my best friend when it comes to high quality, reliable and amount of torrents i need/use.

I'd reccomend using a proxy, then use one of those IPI where you use an international signal so you can access websites/settings that are blocked in you're country.

"Edit, i don't know if it's IPI or not" lol.

As you may know, here in the Netherlands, some isp's are forced by law to block thepiratebay,  however, there are loads of mirrors online.
When people don't know how to get to these mirrors/proxy's  they should not be allowed to enter sites like this, because every 10 year old downloads these days.

It's coming on the day one of the blockade. With it's own ad system in place. Targeting the niche of British people.

What dumbasses...
