I'm on Comcast and also can't access TPB. Doing a tracert, the packets are lost in inside of TPB network. Thepiratebay.piratpartiet.se is as far as I can reach.


How do you know that Comcast isn't just allowing ICMP and blocking TCP?

If they're intentionally blocking TPB traceroute data cannot be trusted.


You could do a TCP SYN traceroute to verify this (for example, with http://linux.die.net/man/1/tcptraceroute)


The thepiratebay.org doesn't respond to PINGs, so that's exactly what you should see.
