The movie industry has won yet another blocking case against the UK’s google play store major Internet providers. The order, which has not been published in public, requires the ISPs to block subscriber access to EZTV and YIFY-Torrents. Movie industry group FACT informs TorrentFreak that this latest blocking round will not be the last, and they will continue to target sites that enable “mass access to infringing content.”
The popular TV-torrent site EZTV is one of the latest casualties of the blocking spree. Last month the Motion Picture Association, together with FACT, asked the site’s google play store owner to cease operating or face legal action.
Legal action initiated by FACT then took place behind the scenes and late last month the High Court ordered the UK’s major Internet providers to block EZTV. FACT confirms that in addition to the popular TV-torrent google play store site, movie torrent site YIFY-Torrents is also covered.
The court order hasn’t been made public, but it is expected to be similar to previous ones against sites such as The Pirate Bay and KickassTorrents. This means that EZTV and YIFY-Torrents will be rendered inaccessible by the Internet providers, possibly during the course of this week.
“We have made it clear that we will seek action against sites that continue to provide unremitting mass access to infringing content following due legal process,” FACT tells TorrentFreak.
At the same time the music industry is also preparing another major round of blocks. The BPI recently google play store made a “hit list” including the popular torrent sites isoHunt, Extratorrent and Torrentz, as well as several cyberlockers and the music streaming service Grooveshark.

nope, i’m happy with this. as long as they are wasting their time with this ineffectual bullshit they are missing out on making any real progress. no, please google play store FACT, please don’t block any more websites, you are hurting us sooooo much lol.
Not the point. It buys time to fight against this kind of pointless thing so it doesn’t leave them more time and money to try blocking actual things that work. DON’T GIVE AN INCH, CENTIMETER, OR NANOMETER (the size of bobmail and alec’s penises combined)!!!!
EZTV google play store and YIFY will continue google play store to operate and their contents will be indexed by other sites like the ones above. Like usual, they “kill” one website and 10 others are there to take it’s place.
Every time they block a website or service, they are just screaming at us: “Use a VPN/Tor/Proxy to get around these blockades, kthxbai”.

The royals live in a gilded cage. I don’t think there’s google play store anything anyone could offer me that would get me to take their place.
but google play store everyone loves the queen, she brings in cash from tourism and she blah blah blah.. the royals have raped this country and the world for a long time… i say its time we get rid of the queen. this can happen.. but we are going to need an uncensored, unfiltered internet to do it….
At least you have someone to blame. The poor people google play store with presidents that switch every couple years become a shifting target where people are tricked into thinking they voted for them and then must blame themselves. So many layers of trickery. The real people in power are hidden. google play store
fellow torrentfreaker in the uk.. just think, we are going to be hearing about this little faggot every 5 minutes from the news and such.. we are going to see propaganda on him for years to come… google play store that’s gonna suck..
Site blocking leads to proxy sites being set up which significantly increases google play store the number of Google search hits for infringing content. Since that is where the vast majority of the download generation discover the cultural material they make copies of, this is a counter-intuitive google play store route they are taking.
Well I don’t think they’re stupid – we should be as cynical as we can permit ourselves to be when it comes to the thoughts behind this. We need to anticipate the more serious Internet filtering mechanisms that these blockades are preceding. Then as for making a
