    Default Comcast bans Myspace in AJC!

    "won't affect business" my ass! I'm gonna be my own providor...i have a water wheel to generate power for the servers and everything!

    Everyone call and complain and maybe they'll bring it back temporarily. It's kinda like killing the power to a hospital...you gotta have a warning! jeeeze!

    Lol dumb? Did you read the atricle. 9 out of 10 employees. If you fire 9 out of 10 employees, that would be dumb.

    or just get a diff service i.e.

    windstream
    earthlink
    at&t

    it will teach comcast a better lesson than complaining

    Their employees use the same network that their customers do? THAT is fucking retarded. You keep them separate for exactly this sort of reason.

    would you like to see my studio? Have nearly $1,000 in lights alone. If you look carefully you can see the ring from my shot glass imprinted in it...had a double amaretto earlier!

    i find that insanely hard to believe, but i will admit that my home computer (which is on comcast) hasn't been able to access myspace all afternoon, yet my sidekick is on it (which is just a t-mobile phone) without a problem right now. weird...

    well from my interpretation of the article it said they were blocking the IP from the comcast office building...

    but i agree with osnap. That would be pretty bad ass.

    Well my shit won't connect either.. If this is so, I'll drop and go to dsl.. I'll be damned if I pay 52/mo to be told what the fuck I can and can't look at.

    The article appears as if they're just banning it webpage at their company.
