Pastebin is blocked as per court orders [Rant]

7 comments:
I don't know why internet service provides keep blocking websites, It's very annoying. Today a friend sent me a code snippet via Pastebin asking me to modify and make it work for him. This is what I received when I followed the Pastebin link.

I am clueless as to why a site like Pastebin was blocked as per court orders. Had it been a torrent or a file sharing website, I would have assumed that it was blocked to avoid movie piracy but blocking a website like Pastebin appears completely pointless. I'm using 3G services offered by Airtel, a leading internet service provider in India.
Currently I have to use a proxy to access Pastebin.
