No, not blocked at all, working just fine here from several different UK ISPs. What is the source of this claim of blocking?


Some ISPs include optional filters. Some of those filters have some granularity - pornography; violent content; hacking / cracking / piracy; etc.

If your ISP has those filters you've probably already turned them off.


OK, but if you apply filters to your internet then any blocking is something that you've done yourself, not "UK ISPs".

It's a bit like putting a bag over your head and then claiming that "UK Authorities" have blocked out the sun.
