I       don't remember the site, but I hit one a couple weeks ago that said I       couldn't visit them using a VPN. They knew I was exiting from a VPN.       It was to circumvent their geofencing, but they countered by not       allowing VPN visitors. They were determined to allow an audience from a       specific region. Well, their site, their rules, and a goodby to them.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)
