Nice political statement; but who would install it

It makes a cogent political statement, and I am sure that is what it was intended to do. But why would any sane person actually install an add-on that limits what you can do and routs all your traffic thru China in the 1st place.

Besides, how long do you think it will take the "Great Firewall of China" to block that traffic to the proxies inside of China from Western blocks of IP addresses?

Cogent stays away from politics, they only provide bandwidth
