CenturyLink/Qwest/Layer3 blocks Kiwi Farms

I have clearnet access again. Before, I had the same problems as everyone else: Got a 503, got an ERR_TIMED_OUT, then an ERR_CONNECTION_RESET, then the site would load slowly but as a flat static page without the stylesheet or something. I can't do anything with my ISP, the traceroute and ping data packages go to KF as expected. There was only a 25% package loss when I pinged.
 
s-seems like it's back to normal...
What happened did Jersh win?

Well, besides few Chinese routes being slow (which is nothing unusual in general), it looks much better than yesterday.

Virgin Update (how appropriate for this place): I got a stock response from a pajeet, who thinks that it's kiwi farms blocking me. I guess I'll have to try and escalate somehow, but at this point it seems mostly moot as they're not peered with anyone blocking the site.

Dropped a complaint about Three to ofcom, using their magic complaints form. They can't reply, but the weight of complaints can affect how quickly they look into things. I also poked at them on the stupid bird app.
 
Stopped reading there. Go back to Reddit you nigger faggot and put down the mountain dew before you hit 400lbs. No one is entitled to the labor of doctors/nurses. Stop being fat, retarded, and "edgy".
Agreed. On the topic of going back to Reddit:
 
Did you really think we have all the freedoms in practice that politicians like to claim we do? Freest country in the world? There is a difference between freedom from and freedom to. The constitution guarantees freedom from government censorship, it does not guarantee you the freedom to use other people's resources to spread your messages. No one will throw you in prison for making fun of troons. The state won't shut you down for using your own resources to publish troony news. That's about as far as that right goes.

This is a country where we don't have a right to preventative medical care. Crying about businesses not wanting to participate in your questionable genre of entertainment makes you a faggot. But muh rights, muh freedumbs! Good luck arguing your feelings in court, the USA is a pay for play justice system. They're too busy trapping black people into slave labor for the crime of having weed to treat a gossip forum as important as its users think it is.

Don't care about negrates, I only made an account to follow certain threads but I hope it soothes your hurting butts to fight the harsh reality boys, I really do. Not gonna help keep the site running to cling to blind idealism. This world is not fair. If it were there would be no troons to wage this retarded war with

If they have to drive through enough troonery to even reach your house they would have every right to stop delivering to your address citing safety concerns. Delivery drivers are people too.
No, it's not painful to be retarded, you lot would know. And if twitter bans me I will say thank you because it is full of teenage trannies who get mad when you don't respect their neopronouns, and the formerly richest man in the world is doing his damnedest to make it even worse anyway
This is the power of the retard war super soldier
Captain tard you might say
 
How do you find out what smaller ISPs are connected to the big ones? I have a relative who is the president of a state’s branch of a major American ISP and if they’re connected to this, I may be able to convince them to get a complaint in through that channel. No idea if that can even help, but it would certainly be more weight than I have on my own
 
Strangely, traffic from Australian ISP's to KF is routed through GTT, and for the entire period since the first TRW post it has been largely unaffected on my end. Even after trying it with Aus-based VPN's.

I remember, decades ago when I was an adolescent just learning about this stuff, listening to a shitty audio recording I had downloaded of a 2600 presentation that was titled something to the effect of "CAN ICANN PLAY?". It was a presentation by Andy Muller Maguhn, the CCC guy, where he spoke about going to ICANN as the odd-man-out, and openly hearing them talk about wanting to delete top level domains to prevent access to entire countries during a "crisis". This was right after 9/11 and he was quite alarmed at the fact that they were so casually considering wiping whole countries off the net in this manner. I can't even find this lecture anymore in 2600's archive.

Here's the 2002 presentation I referred to in the above post, thanks to @Fuck It We'll Do It Live for digging it up:

H2K2 (2002): Fucking Up the Internet at ICANN: Global Control Through the Domain Name System


Description:

Friday, July 12, 2002: 3:00 pm (Area "A"): Did you know that the entire Internet domain structure is controlled by a mysterious group called the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN)? Andy Mueller-Maguhn, longtime member and spokesman of Germany's Chaos Computer Club and currently elected from European users to be on the board of ICANN, will explain the latest developments at ICANN and how the mixture of intellectual property and governmental interests affects the freedom of the Internet. Paul Garrin, founder of name.space and FREE.THE.MEDIA!, will talk about his initiatives to establish rights to access to the legacy ROOT.ZONE, from the historical antitrust action against Network Solutions in 1997 through the US Department of Commerce's IFWP process (the predecessor to ICANN), and Name.Space's $50,000.00 TLD application to ICANN in 2000 (ICANN kept the money and took three TLD's previously published by Name.Space). The question is raised: Is there hope for seeking fair access to the legacy ROOT.ZONE through due process or is it time to treat ICANN as "damage" and route around it?

As you can see, the idea of fucking up the internet by messing with any kind of centralized authority aspect of it (in this case, top level domains) has been a long time in the making.
They just had to prime a generation that was originally pro-free speech and pro-decentralization to the benevolent paternalism of shielding the drooling masses from misinfo that they shouldn't see and that might cause them to act funny if they do.

If you are a zoomer, listen to this and check out how differently people responded to the idea of centralized control of the internet just two decades ago. It was abhorrent to them. Where did all these people go since then? Part of them became a silent majority watching the internet go to shit but feeling powerless to do anything, another part joined the woke cult and became SJW keyboard warriors.
 
That's so evil. Holy shit.
I know everyone makes comparisons to the nazis, "founding myth of the modern world" and whatnot, but if more people knew more about history people could call this shit out more easily.

Thats why they dont teach you shit that matters in school, especially in relation to history
 
AT&T home and TMobile mobile are working for this burgerlander.
Verizon and even comcast as well. I pointed this out to my ISP (they’re decent but their upstream is CenturyCuck.)

They should be screaming at CenturyCuck right now because Xfinity is their largest competition in this area. Right now, my apartment complex only uses my ISP but I know for a fact that Comcast would love an excuse to wire up my building and start mailing my neighbors offers that undercut the competition. I’m already an a personal retard jihad tbh.
