I'm not sure... I think TMZ is blocked on the UK now  :?

TMZ.com strangely redirects me to http://www.warnerbros.com/ (http://www.warnerbros.com/)

I can get to TMZ via AOL but not Google. Links from TMZ articles posted on threads here don't work any more either.

Just checked - I am in the UK and got the message "Due to laws within your region, you are unable to view content for this website." on my first 3 attempts; upon refreshing the page I eventually got to the TMZ home page... But now Blocked again!
I wonder what is triggering the UK "ban"! Some censorship of some sort but what? It says much for FREEDOM!
Let's try to contact TMZ and ask the question! We can then take it further if it persists... My word we will!

Well this article is old (from Dec 2009) talking about internet censorship in the UK
http://www.prisonplanet.com/death-of-th ... sites.html (http://www.prisonplanet.com/death-of-the-internet-censorship-bills-in-uk-australia-u-s-aim-to-block-undesirable-websites.html)

This one is more recent but focuses on blocking porn sites

I also sent a tweet to Harvey this morning, let's see what happens in the next 48 hours.  Internet censorship is a rather complicated matter and something which should NOT exist, we should be entitled to decide what to watch or not to watch! There is a definite possibility that the TMZ UK DNS server is facing some technical issues rather than TMZ being censored in the UK as I am struggling to see on which ground TMZ could be censored.
There is no publicly available list of censored websites, the official body that looks after censorship is the internet watch foundation (Another waste of taxpayers money!) and I guess this would need to be where we would need to "hit" if TMZ is indeed under censorship.

It seems TMZ has imposed this block permanantly for legal resaons, however, for people in the UK who can't access TMZ at this time (Including myself) try using this link:
