Project Free TV, YIFY, PrimeWire Blocked In the UK

hypnosec writes "The movie industry in the UK is having a ball, as far as blocking of sites allegedly involved in piracy is concerned, as courts have asked UK ISPs to enforce a blockade on Project Free TV, YIFY, PrimeWire and others. Getting a torrent or steaming site blocked in the UK is a mere paperwork formality, since ISPs have completely stopped defending against these orders. As it stands, a total of 33 sites have been blocked in the UK, including The Pirate Bay, BitSnoop, ExtraTorrent, Torrentz, 1337x, Fenopy, H33T, KickAssTorrents, among others."

    so what Google block's kiddie porn...

    WTF does that have to do with the English Monarchy (via their corporate holdings) dominating its peasants

    I don't even want to hear the English complain when they're living 1984 in 20 years.

    First, it's not like they didn't have a novel warning them.

    Second, they know their democracy is contingent on Royal perogative. They can find out who owns what assets. They can read where the Monarch's money went & how companies like **Royal** Dutch Shell and BP continue colonialism via different means to this day. They have basic freedoms. They should know better.

    Third, Ireland & europe, and the USA would help them peacefully transition.

    That's why this censorship happens...because English people aren't free.
