The precise number of websites blocked in Belgium is unknown. Blocking may vary from one Internet Service Provider (ISP) to another with some sites blocked by some ISPs and not by others.

Site blocks in Belgium are at this moment based on DNS Hijacking which has the possibilities of circumventing using proxies.

Verification

There is no official complete register of blocked sites. Blocked content includes:

  • Court orders (mainly for copyright issues)
  • Unilateral blocking (some websites have been reported as being blocked without any known court order on the sole initiative of certain ISPs)
  • Gambling regulations (Belgian gambling laws requires a Gambling business to have a local physical gambling point and proper license in order to provide online gambling)

The only reported technique used by Belgian ISPs to block such websites is DNS Hijacking where requests toward the blocked websites would be redirected to a government owned web page: the "StopPage".

Unilaterally blocked websites

These are the sites blocked by some ISPs in Belgium without any known related court-order. It is believed that these blockings are the result of pressure by the Belgian Anti-piracy Federation (BAF) who threatened ISPs of heavy legal fees should they not comply with their request. The list of ISPs below is probably incomplete as each ISP can decide individually on the matter.
