The popularity of foreign series and films today is simply huge. This is not surprising, because many of us have free time that needs to be spent in some way. And, as an option, many people like to just relax, not go anywhere and enjoy the next episode of their favorite series (which, by the way, are filmed in such a way as to intrigue and lure the viewer).
The only problem is that our compatriots do not want to pay for access to the latest episodes, and therefore pirate resources like torrent trackers and sites where the latest episodes are released almost immediately, as soon as they appear in paid access. Moreover, we even have amateur studios engaged in dubbing and translating episodes from English almost at a professional level. One of the most popular such studios is LostFilm.tv.
Piracy again…
Obviously, watching series on the Internet in Russian when they were officially posted on paid channels (like Netflix, for access to which they pay several tens of dollars a month), is illegal. It is necessaryeveryone can understand.
Moreover, the studios that make your favorite series invest huge amounts of money in each series, which in the end are not returned to the creators for the reason that they are watched illegally on pirated resources. As a result, the money from advertising on such sites goes to their creators, and the studios that shoot the series operate at a loss. This is being actively fought now.
Fight against illegal TV viewing
It's frustrating when you want to check for a new episode, and here you see the inscription "LostFilm.tv is blocked". How to enter? How to bypass blocking? These are probably the first things that pop into everyone's head.
Such inscriptions indicate that providers are struggling with copyright infringers in every possible way. The initiators of such a struggle, first of all, are the creators of the series themselves. The main actors in the fight against piracy are search engines that remove links to torrents and movie catalogs from search results, as well as Internet providers and hosters that block such resources both on the side of the visitor and on the side of the site itself. It is easy to deal with the latter - it is enough for the administration of the pirate portal to transfer the site to the so-called "bulletproof" hosting, which is not afraid of any complaints. But what about blocking on the client side when you want to watch a movie, but you see the inscription “LostFilm.tv is blocked”? We will talk about this in this article. At the same time, please note that we are not campaigning for the support of piracy. Moreover, we absolutely agree that pirated films and series are bad, and you need to watch all the latest from the world of the film industry either under a paid license or in cinemas. Then there will be no need to ask why LostFilm.tv or any other similar portal is blocked.
ISP blocking mechanism
So, on the side of the provider (Internet access service provider), such sites are blocked by ip-address. Let's say the operator "Beeline" has a list of pirate sites, or rather, ip, on which they are located. If you want to go to watch the series, the operator closes access and gives you the familiar message “LostFilm.tv is blocked”. It would seem hopelessness - you won’t be able to watch a movie, there’s nothing to do. However, there are a lot of ways to get around this ban today. The beauty is that they can be both free, but effective, and paid, but very convenient to use.
How to unblock LostFilm.tv?
So, since the operator blocks unwanted sites by ip, all we need is to bypass this ban. This is done using one of the tools to hide the IP address of the final destination: VPN server, proxy service, anonymous browser or anonymizer. A little bit of everything.
The difference between these mechanisms is how the task is implemented - hiding your real data, protecting your computer and anonymizing it. For example, VPN services work with many servers at once, whichmay be located in different countries of the world. This is very convenient, because all you need if LostFilm.tv is blocked (you don’t know how to enter) is to install a program that connects to a VPN and encrypts your real traffic.
Another way is to use an anonymous browser like Tor. To watch your favorite series, you just need to go to the pirate portal through this program and, despite the provider's ban, the resource will be available.
Also, if LostFilm.tv is blocked, you can try proxy services like HideMyAss or Stealhy.co. These resources are usually free. True, working with them is not as convenient as with a VPN server that can switch your ip automatically. However, they also encrypt the server where you are going to go, making it easy and simple to watch TV shows even when LostFilm.tv is blocked. How to enter such add-ons and how to handle them - read on the developers' website.
And again about piracy…
Once again I would like to remind you about piracy and that by watching series on unofficial resources, you deprive their legitimate developers of money. At the same time, you "feed" the pirates who copy and voice such films. In some ways, of course, they are doing the right thing, doing their job of Russifying the series. On the other hand, in any case, they steal someone else's work. Therefore, ideally, if you see the inscription “LostFilm.tv is blocked”, you should not think about how to enter it. It is better to use paid services that have already started their work on our website.market representing rights holders.
