RCS & RDS. Vodafone, Orange, Telekom were this week at the center of an extremely important event, which will affect many of the clients of the operators that provide telecommunications services in Romania. More precisely, I told you this week that RCS & RDS, and the rest of the companies, announced that they agree to blocking some torrent websites, su of some online films, following a project opened by big Hollywood film production houses.
RCS & RDS. In court, the operators did not put up much resistance, and said that they agree to block everything, but that they need a court decision by which they are forced to do so. Well, here Romania is practically entering a normality, because in other countries the use of torrents is prohibited, online movie websites do not exist, or are closed very quickly, and RCS & RDS, and the rest of the telecom companies, will do the same.
RCS & RDS. Vodafone, Orange, Telekom, ATTENTION, WARNING for Customers
RCS & RDS. Citizens abroad who use torrent services to download pirated content from the Internet I also receive fines for what I do, but in Romania for the time being it is not possible to achieve something like this. On the other hand, the blocking of thepiratebay.org by RCS & RDS, plus the rest of the operators, at the DNS level is a very important step to reduce the level of content piracy, although local torrent websites are not blocked either.
RCS & RDS. It is known that all operators have a lot of clients who use torrents, and due to the fact that the phenomenon has such a magnitude, they try to block it at the operator level, not at the user level. You must be prepared for the blocking of many other torrent websites in Romania by RCS & RDS, or other companies, because the success achieved by the big production houses in the USA will give them the courage to go further.
RCS & RDS. This will not happen overnight, the current process has been going on for about a year and a half, and it is not yet in the final phase of the attack, so only in a few years will the torrents be blocked more seriously, and be sure that this will happen .
