link-removed and link-removed are both working here. access to tpb (link-removed.se) is down/spotty, but this is due to a ddos attack, not a court blockage (downforeveryoneorjustme.com says it's up, downforeveryone.com says it's down). both going through london on to other networks via airtel (wholesale).
 
So Airtel is producing movies now? Or maybe, it doesn't want people to download Satyameva Jayate through link-removed!
 
duh. the court order was obtained by reliance. got a call from airtel. they just received the court order and that is why the sites are now blocked on airtel. i have asked them to send me a copy of the order. might get it in a couple of hours. might not. i was told that the order contained the list of sites to be blocked. i asked to send me what they can after hiding the part that they cannot reveal.
 
There's an update on Medianama . As per an update on the website "We have been informed that the block has been imposed following a John Doe order taken by Copyright Labs, Chennai, from the Madras High Court for preventing piracy of Tamil Films Dammu and 3. Copyright Labs CEO Harish Ram has confirmed the same to MediaNama and we’ve requested him for a copy of the order. We had reported about the John Doe order taken by the producers of 3."

Hope the above is helpful for everyone.
 
Dammu is a telugu film and 3 was released more than a month ago and turned out to be one of the worst flops ever.This is ridiculous.Havent these morons ever heard of Proxy and VPN?
 
Purchased the VPN already .. had not option left ..They have blocked some of the sites which r essential for my work ..Anyways now I use my 4mbps speed on torrents anytime in the day .. :)
