I'm just shocked to see
an English Country that's fully developed to censor Wikipedia. It is
like the "China" problem turing into the "UK" problem. I hope that
the UK would stop this so everyone can go on with their lives on
wikipedia.
Well, if they enable XFF headers on there proxy servers, that will be
ok, but I heard that some ISP's are blocking Wikipedia altogether.
I think you may have been misinformed - there haven't been any cases
of access to Wikipedia generally being blocked, rather than access to
a specific page, that we're aware of.
(And it's not "the UK"; it's some UK ISPs. It's not a governmental
move, nor is it a comprehensive one...)
