FWIW, I agree with Shumon. "Blocking" is loaded language on layer 9, and not
technically correct. His proposed language was a bit technical though.
Yes, that’s very true that “blocking” is rather loaded politically - and also
that it is not technically correct (even if it may be in the user’s minds). I
thank both you and Shumon for providing suggested text… but I needed something
that would fit in the flow of the article. So I changed it to this:
Comcast was CORRECT in not connecting customers to HBO’s site!
Which is perhaps a better way to describe what happened. I then go on to
explain why.
Thanks,
Dan
P.S. By the way, there is the usual and predictable vigorous discussion going
on about DNSSEC (and why some view it as terrible and unnecessary) over in
Hacker News comments:

I’m responding to some… but anyone else who has a HN account and wants to chime
in would definitely be welcome! :-)
