If its not just cogent then we have an even larger issue -- that theres asymetric application of rulings. So we should just assume that if we can't get to something via cogent then all backbones within the same jurisdiction(*) should or will also have the same sites/ips blocked soon? And that it wasnt a fat finger/typo/someone forgot to remove a block? So we're all just waiting for Level 3 to block TPB too, and we still havent seen a legal ruling/order anywhere?
* for various values of 'jurisdiction', in a world where all network operators seeing a technical issue can immediately use their law degrees to guess at which jurisdiction where, when and for how long, installed the ban. (FAICT the ban on TPB @cogent is worldwide.) /kc On Fri, Feb 10, 2017 at 05:03:56PM -0500, Christopher Morrow said: >it's totally possible that the list here is really just a court-order >addition, right?
