How To Open Banned Websites In India. Some Indian ISPs have already begun blocking prominent torrent and video streaming websites (The PirateBay, Torrentz, etc.). When someone tries to access these sites these days, they may get an obnoxious message such as “Access to this site has blocked as per Court Orders” or “Your requested URL has prohibited as per the directions received from the Department of Telecommunications, Government of India.” For more information, please contact the administrator.”
Currently, a number of Indian ISPs, including BSNL, Reliance, Airtel, and others, have begun to block their consumers’ access to specified websites. The rationale for restricting such websites cited in the display message as a “Court order.” The US government has previously blocked websites based on copyright violation, and a number of other countries have begun to follow suit. It’s possible that other service providers will join the league in the following days.
There is, however, a way to legally access these prohibited websites without having to use a proxy. The trick is to change the protocol that the website uses to reach it. ISPs typically block the http version of a website while leaving the https version exposed. When browsing banned websites, type “https” instead of “http” in the address bar to go to the secure version of the site.
If your ISP also blocks the “https” version of your favourite websites, there are still a few options for getting access to them. Proxy, Smart DNS, and VPN services are commonly used to access blocked websites.
