Canal+ has secured court orders compelling DNS providers Quad9 and Vercara to block access to pirate streaming sites.

In an ongoing escalation of its fight against online sports piracy, media giant Canal+ secured court orders compelling DNS providers Quad9 and Vercara to block access to pirate streaming sites in France. Quad9 says that it’s determined to appeal what it sees as an absurd application of copyright law. For now, however, it will block the targeted domain names globally.

Does this explain why torrentgalaxy has been unreachable for a couple days on my end? Hope they ain’t on the domain list and that I don’t have to change DNS (due to laziness over everything else).
