WebTV.Net: Censorship Central?

If Paul will add 208.222.122.40 to the RBL

and

Merit will use the RBL

I'll bet many NANOG readers would buy a WebTV unit just to get rid of
Bob...

Bob, many pray that you would be added to the RBL, nightly as a matter
of fact, before supplications for ones own health.

Drop it.

Microsoft's Web TV Network, with hundreds of thousands of

subscribers,

uses the real-time black hole list censorship software. Very

disturbing

since it niether tells it's clients their mail and WWW is being

censored

nor offers them the choice as to whether or not to allow this

censorship.

Outside their lame anti-spam statement there is no indication of any
censorship anywhere else <http://www.webtv.net/antispam/&gt;\.

Perhaps the people using WebTV would appreciate knowing the fact that
Web TV censors their access. Or, even better, maybe Web TV could

offer

them the choice as to whether their black list is off or on (default
to off). I'd be royally pissed off if I used WebTV and found out

every-

thing I did was behind some one fellow's idea of right and wrong.

Shame
