Hello everyone,

Having to play a little bit with a couple of Amazon EC2 virtual
machines, I noticed that I wasn't able to access thepiratebay.sx from
them. The DNS entry is correct, but an HTTP request simply times out.

They are located in the "US West 2" set.

A friend having an instance in Europe said he could access
thepiratebay.sx from it without problem.

So, does any of you have any elements regarding this?

Best,
KheOps
