Next Sunday, at 4:15 p.m., Barcelona-Real Madrid will be played of the Spanish First Division of Spanish. Taking into account what we have lived in the last three months, It seems inevitable Let us live new indiscriminate blockages of IPS by LaLiga.
This website is not accessible. Once again what seems clear is that They will pay fair for sinners With constant websites that we cannot access. The persecution of IPTV illegal retransmissions is making Companies entering 70,000 euros per month are 40,000. There is clear economic and reputational damage, but there is a clear dichotomy here: for users it is easy to avoid those blockages, but for those who have a website, not so much.
Hello, VPN. Since IPS blockades began by LaLiga It was clear that the only effective solution to avoid them on the user’s side was to use A VPN service. Here The options are multiple and in all cases they usually allow to continue enjoying normal access to all services despite the blockages imposed by LaLiga. It is not a 100% infallible method, but it is certainly the safest to avoid these problems.
Why this method works. These services allow the IP address provided by the operator to change to a different one that will also belong to the country you choose. If LaLiga does not apply blockages to those countries from which the connection or IP of that VPN server is simulated, it is not in the Spanish ISP lock list, we can normally access the content.
And packages encryption. In addition, the VPN encrypt the connection between our device and the VPN server, which makes it greatly difficult for operators or other intermediaries to inspect the traffic content to try to make a selective blockade of certain transmissions.
Companies have it much more complicated. VPN services are perfect for users to “jump” LaLiga IPS blockages, but companies affected by blockages do not have it so easy. The reason is that these companies do not depend on themselves, but often have hired Cloudflare services. This company optimizes access to companies’s websites and protects them from possible cyber attacks, but when LaLiga orders to block certain IPS, the operators execute that order and many of them belong to Cloudflare. And there is the problem.
The condemnation of shared IPS. Cloudflare, like its competitors, make use of shared IPS To manage all its customers. The same IP is assigned to hundreds or thousands of domains, and then it is cloudflare who is responsible for redirect access to each of them. But if LaLiga and the operators They block an IPThey block access to all domains that share that IP, whether it is legitimate and if it is not. Those who are using Cloudflare and other CDNs affected such as Bunnycdn are therefore impacted: users find that access to those domains is suddenly cut.
The remedy is worse than the disease. The only solution for companies is to deactivate the service provided by Cloudflare. That means that they are not affected by blockages, but implies important risks. Cloudflare, for example, avoid (or mitigate significantly) possible service denial attacks that “throw” websites. It also prevents bots from tracking the web can end up unpaid in charging times or in the consumption of server resources. Without the Cloudflare and the like service, the exhibition of the websites of any company in the face of attacks or overloads is remarkable. The remedy can become worse than the disease.
New LaLiga Tactics. Those responsible for LaLiga have reinforced their offensive with a curious tactic: Reach agreements with Cloudflare competitors like Vercel, Akamai or CDN77. In LaLiga they promise that these services – which collaborate in the fight against broadcasts – will not affect third parties during blockages, but with that type of alliance there is a great sacrificed: the privacy of customers, which can no longer be shield in those services.
