Oh dear - the mods have already deleted lots of alternate links as I'm sure you must know.

Admin edit (Chris): Link removed. Once again, for the hard of reading: DO NOT post links designed to help people get round the block the UK Courts have imposed on access to the Pirate Bay.

note to the mods - this isn't how to get round the block, just a story from an isp's call center when they put the block up, thought it was funny :)

Like it, nice to see the future of Britain is safe with idiots like him.

Some of those phone calls are so funny in the tech support. Makes me despair about the future of the World, never mind Britain.

What an absolute moron. I don't have anger issues, but it would be extremely difficult to stop myself from causing physical injury to this person had it been face to face and myself dealing with this.

I've read in several magazines that circumventing the block is not in itself illegal so it's just a moderation thing/cable forum policy :)

Ok going to take the moral high ground which some people will not like, but at the end of the day, as I am one of the owners of this website and regardless of how emotive we feel about this kind of blocking or mass censorship by an ISP such as Virgin Media, we cannot allow links to such torrent sites or post links to get around the block, as it provides access to copyrighted content and this is a breach of our own terms of use and it must not continue.

For clarification, the specific term is as follows:-

Your use of CF shall be in accordance with these conditions, which are non-negotiable.

You agree that you will not:

"Post", transmit, upload, email or "otherwise make available" any content that in doing so infringes upon a trademark, patent, copyright, trade secret or other proprietary rights of any party.

I therefore immediately request that no further links in connection with any torrent site be posted on this forum. Nor will anyone post any link on this forum, to get around the block.

We do not allow any discussion of any kind which borders on illegal and or any "unlawful" activity, this is a standard we have always met since day one and I am not allowing such standards to slip, we do not allow any kind of discussion on hacking a cable modem/TV Set top box for instance, so we cannot allow direct links to "unlawful" torrent content however much you disagree with such political rulings and or court orders.

Thank you for your understanding and co-operation.

I have been reading that site (and it's other variants) on and off all day. "Hilarious" doesn't begin cover it!

looks like i've created some new regular visitors to that site, i found it originally after my boss had to deal with a very annoying customer and wanted to cheer her up as she felt she had done wrong.
