Yep, if it was the same site I would have been told it was already posted. Sorry about that.

salvia_d

No no, don't worry about it, I like it. Share and share alike. I just found it cool that the site used the title I posted here on VOAT. Guess we now have a lot of people surfing VOAT to get their news instead of Reddit which is a great thing. Please continue on and please feel free to repost, share, remix anything I post.

Are they just DNS blocked? Can they directly type in the IP?

SavageSeasons

This is how it always starts. Killing freedom to protect us all! From what exactly? Not sure, but preventing disrespect to the families by reviewing evidence of the crime that took place?

By that logic, doesn't that make cops complete assholes?

ISP's will now find themselves fully within the jurisdiction of American corporate lawsuits - specifically, deliberate interference in contractual business relationships between a corporation and it's clients, or it's customers, especially with the intent to do harm. Said lawsuits offer severe financial penalties for such behavior.

Victory in a lawsuit of this kind offers the ability to seize assets and auction them off to recover up to the full amounts of unpaid amounts awarded by the court. The nations within which these ISP's operate are legally bound by treaty to assist in any recovery effort.

They fuck with your business without having the specific legal right to do so, and they are then liable for actual and punitive financial damages.

All affected parties should talk about getting a good legal team together. This is a class action. I bet the Trump org knows exactly the right legal people for this job.

Time to lock and load and drive down to fire off some formal complaints.

Might as well listen to some tunes on the way. https://youtu.be/uSCJxxI83v4

Can confirm. 8 chan blocked, voat seems ok for now, as is 4 chan.... seems to only be 8 chan for now.

Question for fellow Australians, what would happen if we all lodged complaints about this to the telecommunications ombudsman? My understanding is that they have to investigate, and it ends up very costly for the telcos.

Silencedmajor

Is this really blocked or DNS blocked? If so change your DNS provider.

I wonder what percentage of Internet users affected by this know what that even means let alone how to change the setting on their router.

Australia, NZ and UK are past political solutions

Life Pro Tip: always move after firing a couple of shots.

fartyshorts

This is what we call a winning battle. Flawless logic and strats.

TheKnightOfGod

Do you feel the power of the 5 eyes? Au & NZ citizens are getting censoraped. Most of them are a bunch of cucks and they won't even protest.

Neo-maxi-zoom-dweeby

I guess they have never heard of VPNs.

nomadriders

The problem with this is that you cannot share links with your friends and expect them to be passed around. They know the people that are here already will still keep coming by VPN. It's to prevent the content from propagating across social groups.

EIMR

Can't you use a proxy website? There are many, and you can even see the rest of your destination page, unlike archive.

drj2

He used facebook and the original video came from there. Wonder why that's not on the block list?

vastrightwing

Zuck is jewish, that's why.

Privacy_Terms

It appears that these bastards got a glimpse of my bookmarks bar and banned them all.

rejectedfromreddit

Is there anything stopping US ISPs from doing the exact same thing? I believe Comcast already blocks The Pirate Bay.

EvilWizardManannan

No, they don't. No US ISP that I know of blocks anything.

The ISPs in most shithole countries (like NZ) where they have no 1st Amendment (meaning literally everywhere else outside the US) block whatever they want. They won't get away with it here.

rejectedfromreddit

I've seen it personally, when navigating to The Pirate Bay on/off a VPN. But I guess you had a different experience.

Neo-maxi-zoom-dweeby

Get on a VPN and its not really an issue. I prefer https://www.privateinternetaccess.com - I have never seen them slow and they keep no records.

rejectedfromreddit

VPNs have their place, but they shouldn't be required unless the government or ISP is censoring content.

Saturday405

I believe cloudfare still blocks archive.is via DNS. If that counts.

rejectedfromreddit

I can hit cloudfare, but I get an error message unless I connect thru a VPN

Water

Yet the site it was livestreamed on is not banned?

vastrightwing

Zuck is jewish, he doesn't count.

drozzxd

nothing to see here peon!

1Sorry_SOB

Censoring ideas will not solve your problems.

Maroonsaint

I love how they don’t deal with the problem they just try to hide it. Maybe it’ll boil over and we’ll get to watch mass executions

banning zerohedge and archive

Are these people actually retarded?

edgydude69

It would appear that these are the main targets and the others are their cover.

albeit

Especially archive. They can't memory hole the truth to gaslight their citizens while there are still records of it.

WakkoWarner

People who believe in censorship are retarded and also ignorant since it never works. It is just a fact.

pitenius

Those two are the tip off that it's collusion.

Vampyregod

Makes you wonder what we cannot see that we dont even know about...
