This is the UK we're talking about, absolutely no one in government knows how to block anything. Seriously every time they block something I just use one of those crappy free VPN plugins and get around it. Basically I'm only looking for magnet links anyway.

You don't even need to keep the VPN on to torrent the file. It's so stupid.

I have seen some people in UK (on reddit) complaining about ISP sending notices when torrenting w/o a VPN.
