Copyright holders see two reasons for persecution. The first – the breach of the rights holders, musicians, musical groups. And second, more important reason – promotion of software installation, which, together with free and illegal content gives users access to illegal resources containing pornography and extremist materials, promoting drugs and viruses.

This is basically , lobbying for the interests of a criminal association, said the head of NFMI. We consider even the possibility of addressing this issue at the international level. “The owners and managers of the resource Rutracker.org must be held personally accountable for their actions, contrary to law”, – said Leonid Agronov.

For example, a public fight against torrent trackers is the director nominated for “Oscar” of the Russian cartoon “We can not live without space” Constantine bronze, CEO of “Mosfilm” Karen Shakhnazarov, writer Darya Dontsova.

Meanwhile, Internet supporters “pirates” have launched an entire campaign on Bypass. Tips members to each other, like to go to one or the other to lock the resource, pouring the wall, even in comments to the media reports on the subject. “There are many ways to bypass the lock, and they were all fulfilled Rutracker.org service users at the end of last year as part of” civil defense exercises, “- said the head of Zecurion Analytics Vladimir Ulyanov. – At the current level of technology around the block may even inexperienced by using straightforward instruction from the Internet “.

“Second, to act further, it is necessary to understand how Internet users bypass the blockage, – says Oleg Yashin. – Most are so-called anonymizers – is, in fact, online proxy server that hides the IP-address of the visitor and gives him a different IP, for example, Holland. ” The proxy server allows the user to get indirect access to Rutracker.org. The next step could be an initiative of rights holders to restrict access to the proxy servers from Russia.

“But this decision should be made at the state level, as happened in China,” – said the expert on torrents. It operates the “Golden Shield” or, in other words, the “Great Chinese firewall” – a special system of filtering Internet content and a ban on access to proxy servers.

Permission to use the proxy can only be obtained from State proving that the server will not be used for criminal purposes and to access banned content. Apply for such a permit may, for example, a bank. The ban on access to the proxy server by using technical solutions providers “.
