Pirate Bay block effectiveness short-lived, data suggests

Some interesting quotes:

Quote:
A major UK internet service provider (ISP) said peer-to-peer (P2P) activity on its network returned to just below normal only a week after the measures were enforced earlier this year.
Quote:
The ISP - which shared the data with the BBC on condition of anonymity - said P2P traffic had peaked in the days court proceedings were taking place, largely due to increased media coverage.
Quote:
"But volumes are already pretty much back to where they were before."
So it looks like these blocks are a waste of time and resources - or, in other words, taxpayers' money. At worst, these measures are giving TPB and P2P free publicity.
