balogna pogna Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 I tried to log onto one of my favorite torrent sites this morning and this message was on the site:"We received a letter from a lawyer represeting the CRIA, they were threatening with legal action and We need to start blocking Canadian traffic because of this. If you reside in Canada, that is the reason you are being redirected to this message. Thanks for your understanding, and sorry for any inconvenience."I wonder if Oink is next?

bouche Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 http://www.demonoid.com/Their servers were moved to Canada a few months ago from what I remember reading. It seems odd that the CRIA is getting hands dirty in the torrent world. You can technically get around it using a proxy tool, but I've never found a good free service that provided a proxy to hide your location.

bouche Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 These proxy's are all blocked at work. I'm more interested in proxy's to see content on sites like NBC that won't allow canadians to view the ondemand shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
