Does anyone have any idea why I’m banned from reading ForeignPolicy.com? For the last few days, the three FP blogs I subscribe to haven’t been updating, and trying to read this I had to use an anonymous SSL-proxy server. Just for that “test your practical circumvention skills” feeling! I can ping and traceroute to their servers (Amazon EC2 – look at you all cloudy and everything!) but when I send them an HTTP GET they immediately kill the TCP session.
Could it be some over-zealous antivirus software on your end?
Anyway, I’ve found their customer services reasonably responsive.
