File Sharing websites banned by Department of Telecom

Hello Kolkata, today at morning i was just clicked on a mediafire download link (Don't want to tell what!!!) this irritating page showed up instead of the Mediafire download page,

WTF??????? What happened to this... I tried many times, refreshed the page, restarted the computer but nothing worked.. Then, surfing internet i found that The Department Of Telecom (DOT) has blocked all the file sharing in India. I rather searched for more info and found the following informations..

1. Department of Telecom (DOT) has banned this these file sharing websites to operate in India


Mediafire.com
Megaupload.com
Rapidshare.com
sendspace.com
Megavideo.com
VideoBB.com
Novamov.com
Movshare.net
Putlocker.com
Hotfile.com
Fileserve.com
Filesonic.com
Filesonic.in
Depositfiles.com
Wupload.com
Uploaded.to
UploadStation.com

2. DOT have also banned many Indian Porn websites.
3. As Per News TRAI And Telecom Company's Are Banning This To Prevent Piracy And PORN In India. Also TRAI And Telecom Company's Are Getting Huge Money From The Movie Etc Company's or Production houses To Block File Hosting Sites.
4. Some saying that they are still able to open these sites, there is still no official announcement from DOT about the ban or open.
5. Hackers and web geeks are using Open DNS system, using proxies to open these sites.
6. Many are saying that this is a copy of China to control the internet freedom of Internet users & some are saying that as Malaysia banned file hosting sites 1 months back so India is walking the same way.
7. Some are saying that it is varying from time to time e.g. one opens Fileserve at 12.30 am fine bout it is not opening at 1.15 am, again it opens in 2.35am and not in 3.10am.. This is going on.

But what people is not getting the answer of that why is this ban.. What is the main reason behind this. banning File hosts are not a cure for the piracy problem, blocking the Piracy websites is the main idea. If you want ot block the piracy stop the websites that are sharing illegal materials not the Hosting sites. Cause there are many Internet users who use these file hosting sits to back up their data, share important documents and lots more valuable stuffs. I dont' know who's brain is working behind this rule but the Internet Users are not taking it as a good thing, rather they are not stopping at abusing this rule.

But still at Kolkata we can't do anything to fix it permanently, but one thing we can do for sure. Raise your voice to abolish this foolish decision via your social networking websites, forums and all the other ways you can...
