The expansions often happen silently but are covered under the existing court orders. Over the past weeks, we have seen one of the largest blocklist expansions to date, targeting hundreds of new domains. At least, for as long as it lasts.Ĭopyright holders are well-aware of the proxy sites and frequently send ISPs lists of new domains to add to the blocklist. These allow users to access blocked pages through a new domain name, bypassing the restrictions put in place by the court. However, there are plenty of alternative routes people can use instead.īlocked sites and people who support them often create so called reverse proxies. These blocks have some effect, at least in preventing subscribers from accessing the domains directly. Just a few weeks ago, 123movies and several other streaming portals were targeted by yet another High Court order. Over the past several years hundreds of websites have been blocked in the UK for facilitating copyright infringement, and this list is getting longer and longer.
