UK ISPs are being forced to block The Pirate Bay. One is using 'HTTP 403 Forbidden' to tell users that they cannot access the site. From the article: 'However, chief among my concerns is the technical way this censorship is implemented. At the moment, my ISP serves up an HTTP 403 error.' ... As far as I am concerned, this response is factually incorrect. According to the W3C Specifications: «The 4xx class of status code is intended for cases in which the client seems to have erred.»' So, should there be a specific HTTP status code to tell a user they are being censored?
Для Ъ: Сейчас заблокированные цензурой сайты отвечают кодом 403, что технически не верно, там предлагают ввести новые коды специально для таких случаев.
