As you can see in this torrentfreak article:

https://torrentfreak.com/court-orders-i ... es-171113/

opensubtitles.org is blocked by ISP's in norway, the case was actually against popcorntime but they blocked YTS.ag and onlinesubtitles.com, opensubtitles.org, plus their subdomains as well since popcorntime uses this sites for subtitles. Luckily this Block can be avoided by changing DNS settings. The Norwegian pirat party has set up DNS servers anyone can use to avoid Blocks like this. You can find it here:

Or use Google 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
