File hosting sites not working

[royalbody]

Just found this, i hope can help you :

This is from the BT forums, written today in response to many many complaints:

Hi guys,

This has proved to be quite complex, so I am really sorry I couldn’t give you more details earlier.

We have now found a routing issue that was causing the problem and this has now been resolved so these sites can now be accessed again.

We're really sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for posting back confirming that you guys now have access.

Thx,

I'm with Talk Talk on a BT line, and can't download from Filesonic, Oron and Hotfile.

I had that yesterday. I thought maybe my Internet provider had blocked these sites because I was downloading too much. I also went on another computer, changed my IP and strangely, I could access these sites you mention.

But not on the other computer where my real ISP was showing.

However, all is okay now. Back to normal. Maybe yours will be okay tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

They don't just meddle with the internet, it is at the stage where they don't even like you looking at naked ladies! the UK has has some has some stupid "Obscene Publications Act", so do not enter and download material from the Kinky Section if you re-side in the UK!

Here is rough guide to what is apparently illegal

What is unlawful?

• Any material which is in breach of the prevailing criminal law. This includes any material judged to be obscene under the current interpretation of the Obscene Publications Act . This would include scenes of Bestiality, Necrophilia & defecation (“hardsports”). The authorities also (dubiously) contend that fisting and urolagnia are also obscene. urolagnia is defined as urinating during a sex scene, or “watersports”. Urinating when not related to sex is acceptable.
  
• Any material (including dialogue) likely to encourage an interest in sexually abusive material (eg paedophilia, incest, rape) which may include adults role-playing as non-adults.
  
• The depiction of any sexual activity which involves lack of consent (whether real or simulated). Any form of physical restraint which prevents participants from indicating a withdrawal of consent (e.g. ball-gag). The infliction of pain or physical harm, real or (in a sexual context) simulated. Some allowance may be made for mild consensual activity. penetration by any object likely to cause actual harm or associated with violence
  
• Any sexual threats, humiliation or abuse which does not form part of a clearly consenting role-playing game. Strong abuse, even if consensual, is unlikely to be acceptable.
  
• The above guidelines are non-gender specific and make no distinction between hetrosexual and homosexual activity.
