I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Maybe it only works in the US.
Anyone else wanna try? It would be interesting to see if any other countries are allowed access.

It's not like you guys are missing much, except for the Wolves ad, because there's this great site based on it:

So he'll send all of our American jobs to India, but he won't let those same Indians visit his site?

Those outside the US can access it via my stripper proxy here. But, as its a stripper proxy, most of the content gets stripped off...

The site was DDOS'd from a foreign country. Since it's really not their target area for the website, I guess they feel it's easier just to deny them access at all.

That ad is amusing. I like how it states that we live in an "increasingly dangerous world," while one of the Bush campaign's most important claims is that the administration has made America safer. Oops.

It's to keep you people from screwing up the election. Again.

Seriously, what security hazards are risked by people knowing what Bush's platform is?

hahah will too
A desperate disease requires a dangerous remedy.

A major source of objection to a free economy is precisely that it gives people what they want instead of what a particular group thinks they ought to want. Underlying most arguments against the free market is a lack of belief in freedom itself.

He wasted no tax dollors (or dollars). It's privately funded, and would be highly illegal to spend tax money on an ad such as this.

On topic, yeah that is a bit odd they would do something like that...
2004-10-28, 1:37 PM #39
I don't see why it is odd that they are reducing access to prevent denial of service attacks. Also, I thought it was not acceptable to advocate denial of service attacks on Massassi.

Uh... I'm assuming that you are refering to Impi's comment, Wookie06. A winking smiley usually denotes a non-serious comment or joke, so I don't see what the problem is.
