Re: Fight Back Now!
said by DownTheShore  :Interesting. Your link will open up on FF, but on IE7 I get a redirect to a Gateway Google page. If I enter the IP address directly (obtained from the FF screen) I get: "The Website You Are Looking For Is No Longer Active. Please Contact Your Hosting Company" I did find a bug in the code related to the random site generation, not sure if that is what causes IE7 to bomb out. Yeah, direct site IP access is disabled for security reasons.
I did notice that it runs much slower in IE than all the others, mainly due to the way IE "stalls" on the invalid domains with it's own "domain not found" page. Can't help that in IE though, just the nature of the Microsoft beast.  |

This will be great when the low caps/bill by the byte is started too. Even if you block the ads, you will still be charged for them. |

ALL isp's have this data anyway. It's called a DNS server.
What does the DNS server have to do with it? You can use any DNS server you like, including switching away from your ISP's DNS server.
What you can't do is avoid going through your ISP's aggregation routers. And that is exactly where the ISP will place the DPI appliance. You either go to the Internet through your ISP's DPI appliance, or you don't go to the Internet at all.
