Good idea, as previously said, different counties block/censor different
things, so simply changing a circuit will get around this (for now).

With reference to torrents in the UK, as Sam said, not all are blocked. Its
basically a game of whack-a-mole with the courts. Every time the courts
order ISP's to block a particular domain name (eg torrent.com) the site
will simply change domain name (eg to different-torrent-name.com) until the
courts order the ISP's to block it again a few months time. I am uncertain
if, for example, someone were to set up a new ISP they would have to follow
the previous court blocking orders or they would need to be "re-issued" to
the new ISP.

Thanks
