What is Error 451?
Why do we need Error 451?
UK Blocking Orders


SITE BLOCKED FOR LEGAL REASONS

Courts can order your Internet Service Provider to block certain websites.

In the UK, this is usually because the websites contain material that infringes
copyright. In other parts of the world, websites are targeted for their
political content.

ISPs often don't say why a website is blocked and court orders are rarely
voluntarily published. So when sites are blocked, it's really hard to find out
why.

451 Unavailable is here to help ISPs make it clear why websites are blocked and
to encourage courts to publish blocking orders.

Can you help to make Internet censorship more transparent?
