This ‘secrecy’ is not an oversight but a feature that’s codified in the agreement between rightsholders and Internet providers.

Well this setup seems perfectly secure and not at all susceptible to malicious actors.

Secrecy and bypassing court orders? It seems like illegal censorship to me.

Disappointing, Germany. How can we trust you to find the best pirate sites when not even thepiratebay.org is on the list?

I think the list mostly contains german piracy websites like kino is german for cinema

They don’t block torrents because they like to watch people connect to the nodes and then sue them.

It’s always better to use onion routing.

Nah, stick to VPNs. Don’t overload Tor with pirate media. Tor network isn’t meant for large data transfers like that.

After a quick butchers at the list, I think they are going after streaming sites rather than torrent sites per se.

How do they even block it? Dns filter or they also block the hosting server?

its just missing dns entrys.

if you configure anything other than your providers default dns server you don’t notice it.

Italy also has DNS filtering, but they recently added IP blocking for some sports streaming websites. This had terrible consequences

Ha, they never learn. They also blocked most of Cloudflare in Austria a few years back.

Fun fact: It was the first IP block they tried. They haven’t tried again since then.
