[tor-talk] Hulu now blocks Tor

Places that require paid user accounts and block
based on where they think you're coming from are just
taking the dumb/cheap/excuse way out. The moment
a user pays via credit card ties them to the card address.
(And there are no more totally anonymous prepaid CC's
in the US, and perhaps not even the world by now.)
So nothing else matters and the site is to blame
for not letting you watch your stuff in your hotel room
in China whether via Tor or not. And for not encrypting
the stream if that's what they're worried about (you
should be worried though). And they should be worried that
by doing this blocking they're pushing [would be]
customers to piracy. And should be educating their
MAFIA licensors about all this. Idiots.
