Newzbin2 Censorship Begins - But Workaround Already in Place
British Telcom blocks Newzbin2 - or not?
It seems the day has come that British Telcom has begun censoring Newbinz2. Naturally, not a day goes by when netizen community doesn't already have a workaround in place. The Newzbin2 crew has already implemented a rather facinating client designed to defeat this block so as not to allow a reign of tyranny from consuming the web. From Team R Dogs:
We've heard that the British Telecom censorship of the free web has begun.
It's a sad day when a minor European nation decides to kow-tow to Hollywood
and join China and Iran in blocking citizens from reading the views of
others and accessing a search engine.
Naturally this won't have any impact: downloads of our BT Cleanfeed busting
client (https:///payments.newzbin.com/n2cdl) that will allow anyone to
access our site despite the block have been stratospheric over the past
couple of weeks: 93.5% of active UK users have downloaded it and we shall
ensure that the remaining 6.5% will be able to get it. The MPA
propagandists claim this censorship as a victory; it isn't, it isn't even a
hollow victory: it's a replete failure.
Newzbin2 shall go on, it's users shall continue to access the site and its
facilities and as the UK lackeys of the MPA roll over other NZB sites like
nzbsrus and nzbmatrix they will realise that nothing has changed and they
have no change after paying millions of dollars in legal fees.
