Are they passing ALL web access through a transparent proxy, (should be easy to work out at whatismyip.com but I am not in the UK) or does it first go through some filter that only passes certain domains through a transparent proxy, which then checks the whole url? I thought the blogs would be discussing some more technical details, surely it is affecting more sites than just wikipedia. Does anyone know how this works on a technical level?

I never suspected it to be more like 13!?!?! (must scrub browser clean...)
