for those of you who don't hear me bitch about it on here all the time, my apartment complex blocks sites with content that it deems "inappropriate"

i was getting by with http://www.milkandcola.com, but some things wouldn't work with it such as embedded video. here is the solution i found today:

http://www.hotspotshield.com/

there's an ad at the top of every page, but if you run adblock those get blocked too

so, in summary, WOOOO HOOOOO FUCK YOU APARTMENT COMPLEX

FREEDOM!!!

8/4/2009 8:53:06 PM

hope you don't plan to renew your lease.

8/4/2009 8:53:33 PM

I have never heard of an apartment complex doing this

8/4/2009 8:53:46 PM

already renewed

what apartment complex? what a great way to scare away future residents

8/4/2009 8:54:40 PM

rhyne's gate. i love the place except for this one thing. now that i've worked around it, i don't have any issues. the free vpn isn't slow or anything.

they include "free" wireless internet through a router they've got around here somewhere as part of the lease. it's not TWC. not sure who my isp is.

8/4/2009 8:56:33 PM

^^

ok well, at least for me, that kinda shit would be a dealbreaker.

8/4/2009 8:57:14 PM

why do you hope i don't plan to renew?

8/4/2009 8:58:06 PM

I think he just explained it pretty well.

8/4/2009 8:58:32 PM

why would i plan to renew if that were a dealbreaker? i'm confused.

8/4/2009 8:59:32 PM

I see now why this doesn't bother you enough to move.

well now you have. y'all want a screen shot of the block page?

8/4/2009 9:05:19 PM

I don't understand why it matters if you're looking at something inappropriate if you're alone and old enough to do it

there is no logic that could justify doing this

8/4/2009 9:05:39 PM

^that's what i thought

8/4/2009 9:06:46 PM

^^
Exactly.

My guess is that Rhyne's Gate is owned by some religious nutjobs....

yo willy i am glad to see we are in agreement

8/4/2009 9:08:25 PM

i was not trying to confuse anyone here.

8/4/2009 9:09:18 PM

8/4/2009 9:14:09 PM

damn dude they block literotica

8/4/2009 9:14:48 PM

8/4/2009 9:17:48 PM

what if you googled like "whore pussy cunt"

8/4/2009 9:19:22 PM

it returns the search results, but 99% of them will be blocked

8/4/2009 9:20:24 PM

so, they provide internet service to you. is it free?

not that I agree with what they're doing by blocking sites that they think are inappropriate, but they certainly have the right to do so. I mean, you have the option of paying for dsl or time warner, right?

8/4/2009 9:22:18 PM

^it is "free" as in it is included as part of the lease contract. yes, i can buy TWC internet service.

8/4/2009 9:24:09 PM

this shit is awesome

8/4/2009 9:50:18 PM

and i thought the internet at my old apt. was bad


i'll take slow over censored anyday

8/4/2009 10:27:03 PM

it's not very fast either. i usually have to pause youtube videos and wait for them to load a little bit to keep them from skipping. .gifs posted on tww take forever to load as well.

8/6/2009 11:18:58 AM

i had to do that with road runner lite 768

8/6/2009 11:51:30 AM

i got spoiled by resnet when i lived on campus

8/6/2009 11:52:32 AM

all this for porn?

8/6/2009 11:52:36 AM

no

a lot of images and funny videos that people post on tww are blocked and won't show up when i'm browsing tww

and i wouldn't describe it as "all this". it took me about 5 mins to install the free vpn software. all you have to do to connect is double click an icon. very quick and simple.

8/6/2009 11:54:17 AM

updates?

9/22/2009 6:04:18 AM

they're still blocking stuff

i'm still working my way around it

9/22/2009 10:14:51 AM

Watch the language - it would be ridiculous to ask a bunch of college students to eliminate the use of foul language in their discussion, that is not what I am asking. Just keep the 4 letter words out of the subjects of the message. The idea is for any new user to have to click 3-4 times before he/she gets offended
