UK Censored

5°C, rain.


Some UK ISPs have censored a Wikpedia article about the German rock band "The Scorpions", one album cover has caused the problem, 32 years after it was released. That’s what I call slow reactions. My very own Claranet have joined in the blockage. See if yours does too: Blocked
I’d guess that this band were the inspiration for Spinal Tap’s "Smell the Glove" parody. the album cover is pretty easy to find on other sites though, it’s only Wikipedia that is barred.
Funnily enough, the page is not blocked in school.

  1. It didn’t, the cover was changed when the album was re-released. I’m not sure of the ethics of this whole story anyway, aren’t we slowly just getting used to everything becoming censored?
