>>The 'plebs' are on VM and or Sky or BT so thet they can get their fix of soaps and footie. The more enlightened of us are on other ISP's.

My ISP is Sky and they don't block "access" to the Piratebay at all. All they do is try and prevent you connecting to the Piratebay website by browser (and as we know, unless you're completely clueless, that block is ludicrously easy to circumvent...)

Broadband powered by home gateways? Whose bright idea was THIS?

Re: Great idea

That'll be the smart meter I don't have in my house? :P

'Walter Mitty' IT manager admits to buying gun on dark web

"People looking to obtain illicit goods and services under the supposed anonymity of the dark web continue to discover that they can in fact be traced and identified"

said an LEA munchkin.

Lol yeah but not actually traced via the dark web (which is what you're trying to imply) but because said goods have to be physically delivered (and the purchasing moron compromises himself with his cred card or postal address or real email address etc). Not quite the same thing...

Just in time for them to run up some new laws "for our protection".. :)
