Users of pirate IPTV services in Sweden are actively trying to circumvent new ISP blockades ordered by Stockholm's Patent and Market Court. The court sided with rightsholders Viaplay, TV4, and Discovery, requiring Telenor and other ISPs to block subscriber access to pirate IPTV providers. This triggered a cat and mouse game is likely to intensify the call for broader blocking measures.

    Thanks for the tip! I use pihole and been using it for years so the blocking part is already taken care of😊

      I think PiHole is using Unbound behind the scenes. What I like about Blocky is not only does the performance to be much, much more solid using an upstream resolver with high latency (VPN exiting in another country), it automatically refreshes the denylists (something I think PiHole has to do in a more roundabout way).
