File-sharing site The Pirate Bay must be blocked by UK internet service providers, the High Court has ruled.The Swedish website hosts links to download mostly pirated free music and video. Sky, Everything Every where, TalkTalk, O2 and Virgin Media must all prevent their users from accessing the site. You online activists were so paranoid about bills in the U.S. Congress that you totally ignored what was happening in your courts. |

I did not copy and paste the whole BBC News article, just the first paragraph. I think every ISP in the UK is affected by this court decision. Methinks the free downloads on the Twilight Wap site will be cut off soon. Btw, the ISP's are being forced to be the internet police, I don't think a proxy will fool them.

I looked again, and yes it is only five ISPs affected. But as the old saying goes, 'If you give them an inch, they will take a yard'. So do you think your government will settle for five internet service providers? I remember when your government said the surveillance camera program would be restricted only to crime hotspots on a temporary basis only, and now you cannot get on a bus without somebody seeing if you have dandruff or not.

Yep, I'm sure that there might be some inovations in the satellite isp market if that happened. After all, you cannot really enforce a law like that if they have no equipment in the country.
