Re: Anyone else having trouble reaching thepiratebay.se? AS39138

I just posted TATA as a single example.  This route is missing from multiple networks.  I could not find the specific 
/24 on, Sprint(1239) AT&T(7018) and Centurylink either.

rviews () route-server ip att net> show route 194.71.107.0/24

Basic troubleshooting of your two example ASN's.  Notice the community 174:991 on the Cogent path?  Go look that up in 
Cogent's community guide.  Level3's looking glass actually does the translation of communities for you.  I'm not going 
to try to map out all the possible paths this prefix could be reach.  At the moment, the /24 is not reachable from 
several networks.  Either an outage or a change at AS51040 or  their upstreams has caused the traffic engineering of 
one of the networks upstream of 51040 to break connectivity for a group of networks.

Courtney,

No offense, and I can’t really verify Comcast’s network.  But Verizon peers with the same ASNs I do 3356 and 174 
which both have routes to thepiratebay’s prefixes, and I can almost guarantee that Comcast has those routes within 
your network.  What’s up really?  Just because TATA is  blocking routes shouldn’t effect the whole internet, or this 
whole thing would have been screwed a long time ago.

Javier, 


I can't get to www.rrbone.net, an upstream provider to the IP I was given for thepiratebay.se. 
I tested on VZ FiOS and Wireless in Philadelphia area and both die within the VZ network. 


For Comcast, it looks like the space isn't showing up in the BGP table: 
route-server.newyork.ny.ibone>show ip bgp 194.71.107.27 
% Network not in table 


No clue what the cause is, but it bigger than just the PirateBay.

I confirmed It is also blocked for Comcast users. Even Comcast business users. This is starting to look like 
censorship to me.
