Are you the owner / moderator of this list? The name of this list reads "GNU/Linux Users Group". Yes, believe it or not GNU is a part, a LARGE part. GNU and GNU GPL were created for this very reason - freedom. ISPs keeping us shackled to a particular operating system and people like you who provide "workarounds" are doing nothing but helping the ISPs prove their point - Linux users are a myth.
And next time you might want adhere to the guidelines of this list and reply in the same thread rather than creating a new thread.

People see what they want to see and hear what they want to hear. The article clearly says that the information is for educational purposes only. So, using it as a workaround is YOUR choice.
Whatever I've written in the article is my personal opinion which I do not wish to discuss or will entertain any comments on. Instead of saying "Lets restrict the discussions on this mailing list to technical issues", I should probably have said that. But I do admire your 'enthusiasm'! Haven't seen anyone get so excited, so soon!! Take Care!
As for the creation of new thread. Thats my bad. I had deleted the previous emails. Thought Pipermail was smart enough to take an email with the same subject as part of an older thread.
Lets do some constructive discussion, shall we? Has anyone tried what I've mentioned with their ISPs? Has anyone seen any other ISPs monitor/check for TTL values?
