"A BILL is set to be introduced to the Senate next week that could be the nail in the coffin for online piracy but its detractors say it curbs internet freedom.

The Copyright Amendment (Online Infringement) Bill is a part of the government’s ongoing crackdown on copyright breaches in Australia and comes in the wake of a proposed three strikes scheme that could see illegal downloaders face harsh financial penalties.

The bill will force ISPs to block overseas sites that allow people to share copyrighted material, at the request of a judge"

Other methods UK locals have been using to get around the block include using proxy websites, which stop the ISPs from thinking you’re actually visiting those websites.
As a result, these proxy sites have also been blocked.

When it comes to the internet, people will always find a way to subvert the laws without getting caught for a long while. Torrenting is no exception.
