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! :-)
