Bezeq 'guards' our morals
I tried reaching the link below, which I got from a tweet from Drudge Report.
Curiously, Bezeq (which unfortunately bought out Actcom - my original service provider since 1994) does not allow me to reach the link. A firewall claims that the link includes 'forbidden content' like betting and alcohol. The link goes to AP News. In fact, I had to search Drudge's Tweet on Google just to get to the link above - when I clicked on the TinyUrl posted by Drudge, I got the same 'forbidden content' message.Least you think this only happens in Iran and China....
(And for those of you in Israel, no I do not have one of those religious firewalls on this computer).
Anyone have any ideas?
UPDATE 12:22 PM
Mrs. Carl called Bezeq (it's technically her account) and after half an hour on the phone with them when they couldn't find our account(!) and their protests ("why wouldn't you want it - it's free!") , they have supposedly agreed to remove the 'service' from our account. Mrs. Carl even read them the URL and they confirmed that it had no references to alcohol, gambling etc.
I'll have to try again later. The problem is that I generally open multiple tabs from Twitter and often don't even know which tab has been blocked....
