Finally, some common sense in this utterly absurd situation. I'm so glad this year's "fútbol" season ends this weekend. AFAIK, they don't break the Internet for Segunda División matches (yet!).

Oh boy do I have news for you; they're thinking of doing the same for other sports now too, not just football :) At least the blocks only been for a small amount of Cloudflare IPs, but still sucks big time.

Sue the courts for telecomms interruption and tampering from LaLiga.

You can't sue a court in a court for doing court stuff. Courts are superuser. They can do anything they want to. The recourse is vetting people before they become judges.

Considering web addresses are easily changed, it was a futile suggestion to say block LaLiga streams. Good on Nordvpn. As a football fan, the owners of the leagues have too much power. Like in the UK people have gone to jail for piracy, which should never happen.

That is why they blocked the whole internet. You can't avoid a block by changing your address if the whole internet is blocked.

Who blocked the whole internet? Doesn't happen here in Spain, which is the context for this submission, is "blocked the whole internet" what they do in the UK?

They didn't mean to, just they were incompetent. Also considering Spanish league is spread over the full long weekend a waste of time.
However this is why infrastructure and connection method is needing to be removed from the government by creation and adoption of alternatives such as mesh.

Too fucking right. It is beyond tiresome to fire up the laptop and wonder whether I'll need a VPN to access GitHub today

When the blocks happen, does it take GitHub with it for you? I'm on Vodafone (in Spain) and it's just a few Cloudflare IPs that get blocked during the matches, never had GitHub unavailable, as Microsoft doesn't use Cloudflare for GitHub, AFAIK.

I'll repeat what I said the last time about laliga...
> Foot egg is so ingrained into the countrymen that nothing else matters.
> There wouldn't be so much of a forced monopoly if more people would stop watching games and stand up to laliga.
> Complaining on the internet every time laliga shuts down github etc isn't going to change anything, we can't solve your problems, the change has to come from within.
Props to the court for telling laliga to go away.

Refering to football as foot egg when it’s actually a ball as opposed to the hand egg in the US is weird to me.
OT: La Liga shouldn’t have this kind of power and it’s good to see the court take a stance

They call American football handegg, we should be able to do the opposite. :P

The opposite of "hand egg" is not "foot egg".
And the point is that the object played in "American Football" is not a ball. Balls are round. It is egg shaped. The object played in "Football" is a ball.
Describing the ball in football as an egg just makes you look like you can't see properly.

Which is foot ball. Not foot egg.

that just sounds petty for the sake of pettiness, surely you can do better in terms of mocking
ktallett 31 minutes ago [-]
The opposite would be foot ball. Although both are petty as anyway both are called it because it is played on foot with a ball. Not because you use your foot to kick a ball.

You mean other than Berlin, Malmö, Paris, London, Munich, and many others. Europe doesn't have so many huge companies but that's not a bad thing. We do have a lot of companies doing key work that may benefit society as a whole.
