British Ban Spikes Pirate Bay Traffic
New submitter sleiper writes "Today sees UK ISPs begin to block access for their subscribers to the Pirate Bay URL. Sky, Talk Talk, Virgin Media and O2 have already blocked access and the UK's biggest provider, BT, are currently reviewing their legal position. This access ban however has seen The Pirate Bay's traffic spike to 12 million more page views than their previous daily record. It seems obvious that a message is being sent, that this type of censorship is not the way forward. The Pirate Bay keeps on sailing.""
3 minutes? It's just a case of putting an "s" after http.
A spike is pointy. If it wasn't, I couldn't drive one into the heart of a vampire. It can point either direction like any pointy thing can, but is canonically used to indicate a temporary increase, such as a spike in power usage during a heat wave. Nobody would expect this to mean a decrease.
https://tpb.pirateparty.org.uk/ is apparently what they're using now.
Are you on the light version (?Connect)? One Sky package is completely BT administered and Sky just supply branding, billing admin and take a cut.

Don't believe what you read is the truth.
It is on virginmedia. I tried typing in the IP address and get the blocked due to a court order message. But I still have my mobile internet with Three which isn't covered by this court order.
