UK Court, Pirate Bay must be blocked by UK ISPs

Image
File-sharing site The Pirate Bay must  be blocked by UK internet service providers,  the High Court has ruled. The Swedish website hosts links to download mostly pirated free music and video. Sky, Everything Everywhere, TalkTalk, O2 and Virgin Media must all prevent their users from accessing the site. "Sites like The Pirate Bay destroy jobs in the UK and undermine investment in new British artists," the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) said. A sixth ISP, BT, requested "a few more weeks" to consider their position on blocking the site.
