Cameron’s censorship system kills off legitimate businesses
 

British Prime Minster David “one is an ordinary bloke” Cameron’s censorship of the internet campaign is killing off legitimate businesses.

Cameron favoured internet censorship to protect “the children” from the perils of the internet, when they should be more worried about being left in pubs by their parents. He was also “lobbied” by high profile people in the movie industry to protect them from privacy.

However the blockade of the Pirate Bay by UK ISPs is causing trouble for CloudFlare. This is because one of a Pirate Bay proxy is hosted behind the same IP-addresses as a proxy site called ilikerainbows.co.uk.

In addition to blocking domain names, Sky also blocks IP-addresses. This allows the site to stop https connections to The Pirate Bay and its proxies, but when IP-addresses are shared with random other sites they’re blocked too.

CDN service CloudFlare, has found itself on the UK blocklist and any of its legitimate clients are blocked.
