is sbcglobal throttling Cuban traffic?

Reports from around the country are that traceroutes through sbcglobal (in Austin, Houston and NJ) are failing with timeout to havanatimes.org -- yet when we go in through TOR or Comcast or using overseas services, their routing is just fine. What gives?

why is sbcglobal throttling havanatimes.org ?

Curious that so many routers owned by the same US company would all be timing out on havanatimes.org with the server located in a former eastern bloc nation. Oh well, it's back now. Cold war over. On Sat, Mar 24, 2012 at 5:36 PM, Jeff Tantsura jeff.tants...@ericsson.com wrote: 81.169.144

IANAL but I believe criminal defamation is (ta-da!) a criminal offense. Defamation in service of the crime of extortion -- depends on the jurisdiction you decide to prosecute this in. Since the internet is everywhere, you might be able to choose the jurisdiction with the harshest

Great excuse for taking long walks at the beach, even in the cold. I used to see great snarls of cable on the beach when I was growing up on Long Island -- and later learned that I was looking at the history of transatlantic communication. Bring a hacksaw. On Fri, Dec 12, 2014 at 3:58 PM, Colin

Frontier rural FIOS & IPv6

So by COB yesterday we now officially have FIOS at our farm. Went from 3Mbps to around 30 measured average. Yay. It's a business account, Frontier. But...still no IPv6. The new router's capable of it. What's the hold up? Customer service's response is "We don't offer that".
