Pirate Bay domain suspended thanks to controversial verification system

OpenNIC

It's all about domain name servers and there is nothing stopping us from running our own. For those not familiar with OpenNIC, it's a democratic, non-national, alternative to the traditional Top-Level Domain registries. OK, this might not take off any time soon but still, ICANN could end up encouraging a parallel internet.

If people can learn to use 8.8.8.8 in order to overcome censorship, then they can just as well learn to use some other number.
